Wood Planks vs. Wood Board Problem

[Schnubee]

Hi there.
Normally, you craft wood boards out of wood, then wood planks out of the boards.
In my game you need wood planks for crafting boards which doesn´t function obviously, beacause i first need boards to craft the planks....
Any ideas to fix this....?

There are two recipes for crafting wooden boards: 1 wooden plank block in the carpentry (or woodworker bench, don't remember atm) to make 4 wooden boards, or 2 wood blocks obtained from trees like this

Imagine the 3x3 grid
W=wooden block
0=empty space

0 0 0
0 W 0
0 0 W

In a similar form like that. Each type of wood has their own respective wooden board as well. If this is confusing respond back to me.

I think what the OP is saying is that the recipe for wood planks from two wood blocks is not there. The same is happening to me. Do we need to find the recipe somewhere? I have not come cross it yet in any crates. Oddly enough, I recently got a recipe for sloped wood blocks which I already have... I am hoping this isn't a bug.

Actually the answer of Danny_ is correct to OP question and yours aswell.

This is still and only affecting simple crafting.
It's not a bug, its a mistake from the dev to add the recipe by default on the woodworker bench.

This is default simple woodworking bench:
- making plank out of board
- making board out of plank
- you do not have the recipe to make board out of wood block. wich is extremely wrong lol

Wich totaly make no sense since you cant craft any of those. Since both those recipe require each other lol.
You either wait till you get the recipe. or turn off simple crafting and craft it manually with the recipe Danny_ posted. Turn back simple crafting and you will now be able to craft the plank out of 2 pieces of wood block.

Also when simple crafting is on, why can't we have a blank space on each crafting table so we can manually add the recipe instead to wait to find it "if ever" as I rarely get recipe. Wich make building pretty much limited when using simple crafting.

Just wish I could add recipe without the switching from simple crafting. Unless I'm missing something...
