choosing an object to craft turns on the placement selection tool, but the crafting table stays open - i would prefer it if it would close
You mean the item placement grid, right? That pops up any time you hold an item, and the bench is meant to be used to craft stacks of item at a time. I could turn off the grid while the bench is open.
i get it. i think you can chalk this one up to "user error" then.
