HotCraft (directly handcraft items by hotkey)


Directly handcraft items from your inventory or toolbelt by hotkey, without even browsing the recipes list: just grab a stack in your hand and use ALT-1, ALT-2 or ALT-3 to queue 1,5 or 10 more items for handcrafting. Pressing Q to copy item to hand will now handcraft the item if resources are available and the item not in your inventory.
