FS#1235 - 2 inconsitencies about shield crafting
Shield parts weight 3 times the amount of their raw materials, yet you don't add anything but only hammer a heated metal into shape
Shield parts are worth way less than their raw materials, example: gold shield handle is worth 8 tria, the needed raw materials are worth 2440 tria
thought I put them into one bug report, since they are related to each other and probably the same dev can fix both at the same time - if not, feel free to split this report.

Ooops, forgot to set the category, could someone change it from engine to crafting please?
Starg can you take a look at this?
I agree that we have inconsistencies in weights, sizes and prices of shields and their parts and raw material components. We are working on this, and will fix it as we get to it :). Please change to feature request, since it isn't a bug.
Update, some more inconsistencies:
I tried a view shields from the catalog of shields, to name them: small round shield, some buckler (i forgot the exact name), and a small spiked shield → all of them are category Smith Tools
It's assumable that all shields from this book have the wrong item category. I also tried a Golden shield, which has the correct item category: Armor
Another one: Wicker Golden Shield Kit turns into Golden Shield rather than Wicker Golden Shield. I am pretty sure I used the correct items and turned it into a wicker golden shield kit (am 99%% sure). Because of a lack of raw materials I cannot test this further, but I asked Mordraugion to investigate on that yesterday. Maybe assign him here so he can tell his observations?
Request: Please merge this comment into the details of the report and change title to "Inconsistencies about Shield Crafting"

PS: offtopic: Is shield handling supposed to work? if yes: it doesn't give any practice with the golden shield
You are absolutely correct: those shields, as well as a number of other items in armor and weapons, are in the wrong categories, including smith tools. This category issue has no effect on crafting, and is not related to the book but resulted from using the wrong id number in the creation of the items. This is another correction that will be made when things stabilize a bit.
The wicker golden shield kit results in a golden shield, just like the regular golden shield kit. The reason for this process is to test a way of getting the weights in alignment and to give an alternate way to craft the shield, with possible different final characteristics.
With regards to shield handling, my last test (last week) indicated it still doesnt work. It is being worked on.
Thanks for the fast replay, starg. Feel free to nudge me if you need anything to be tested with this :)
seems the category of all crafted shields have the wrong category except those who you can also buy at a merchant or get by quest (gold shield , wheel shield , maybe some more ) ..
I've fixed the categories of the following items:
Will be available at next reboot
Let me know if there are more.
changed assignement to Bovek
