hmm yeah i thought i said something like that before.

as far as specific recipes though, in an ideal situation to me, it would still be like you said, you have a basic, generic recipe, like with slots or whatever, and you can experiment with different things in the slots or something, and if you made a successful item that item would show up in your menu or something. it might add like, another layer to the crafting menus, i don't know, there are definitely some interface issues. but maybe instead of craft > metalworking > weapons > and a selection of bay 12 axe, bronze sword, militia sword, and soldier's sword, you would have craft > metalworking > weapons > and "axe" and "sword", and clicking one of those would bring up both a crafting window with slots, for experimentation and such, and then on the menu you would have any crafting discoveries you've learned. i don't know though, that's a lot of damn menus.

no clue what you are referring to

i wrote and rewrote it with several other games in mind, such as troll tribes and warhammer online and world of warcraft

if something is intuitive, only natural that you should see it crop up more than once

i never played that, i'm just voicing my desires after playing lots of mmos, i like crafting a lot, so i've been frustrated a lot by the limited crafting systems in most games. i played star wars galaxies with a trader as my main for a long time, that game had a lot of good things and a lot of bad things in the crafting systems.

I've not played any of those games but yes, good point.
