Add in an auto crafting option in the crafting bench

[KT_Astro]

It pretty much speaks for itself, it's really annoying just to sit and hold LMB, I'd much rather have an auto craft feature so I can do anything else in the game while I craft things. I am fairly new to the game and have only gotten up to tier 2 on the HUB so there could possibly be something on higher tiers that I don't know about, but if not I and possibly others would love to have an auto craft feature.

Can you craft iron plates faster than a constructor? Yes.
Can you craft iron plates faster than 20 constructors? No.
Can you craft everything faster than all of the production lines you can build that will be running while you're off doing other things and all making parts at the same time? Noooooooooo.

The point of the game is to build, then build more. You shouldn't want to stand in front of the bench for 10 hours holding a button down to unlock the milestones.

I am the opposite; I wish the devs would make handcrafting slower (like most games) to incentivize people to move to automation as fast as possible, and not use handcrafting as an excuse to "finish" the game faster.

That never made any sense to me... that and smelting by hand...

I can forgive a game for making mistakes when it comes to physics, but not such a core game mechanism like that.

I absolutly agree 100% on this, handcrafting is fine as is.

Well, you got your wish in Update 4.

The Space Bar now toggles crafting, so no more paperweights on the keyboard. (It even continues to craft when alt-tabbed out.)

Not sure if this was intentional, since it's not in the patch notes, but there it is.

its called putting some heavy object on your mouse / space bar and getting a snack.

I would like to see the animation of smelting by hand consist of taking a piece of ore and rubbing it vigorously with your hands until it molds into a bar. That would make me sooooo happy.
