When you are editing a book and you hit OK to indicate you are finished it closes the book altogether, so you have to reopen the book to see the changes. Since formatting can take quite a bit of trial and error, it quickly becomes annoying to constantly have to reopen the book. With music and maps, when you finish editing you simply click the Edit icon again and it exits Edit mode, leaving the music/map open. It would be nice if books worked the same way.

I Was going to make some apple jam biscuits recently as requested by Harnquist but I could not for the life of me find them in any of my cookbooks (I have all four!). Since Harnquist asked for it, I was pretty sure I could make it and took a guess that it should be in the Pastry Chef book that has the jam recipe and open biscuits. With that book in Mind, I was able to make the Apple Jam Biscuits, but I never did actually FIND the recipe. I checked with another cook just to make sure, and she couldn’t find it either. She also pointed out that the Bread with Apple Jam is also missing (the other Bread with Duppong/Teveran/Macca/Joopiner Jam and Duppong/Teveran/Macca/Joopiner Jam Biscuits, as well as the Bread with Butter and Buttered Biscuits are also missing.)

In the Making Enchanted Armor book I discovered that the skills you cannot do are not grayed out (AFTER I tried something, was told I didn’t have the skill, and looked more closely at my book! It does say the usual “WIth higher skill you could blah, blah, blah” but it’s the same color as the rest of the text).

I was working on a batch of Liquid Bread Rise and kept getting “You are not sure what to do with this.” I realize this will probably be nearly impossible to reproduce so I’ll try to explain as best I can exactly what I was doing.

I had started by combining the ingredients (1 Foaming Water, 2 Pinches of Salt, 14 Scoops of Lard) on the preparation table, yielding Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough. Then decided to combine them in the wooden bowl so I could go straight to the mixing step. I had already combined 3 when I switched. I added the ingredients to the wooden bowl and combined, letting it automatically do the mixing step, and this worked fine. The I tried to mix the Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough I had previously combined on the table and that is when I got the “You are not sure what to do with this” message. As long as I combined the items in the wooden bowl and then mixed them I had no trouble. If I tried to put in previously combined Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough it gave me the error message. Several times I reflexively hit the Take All and Stack before it was mixed, and when I tried to put it back in the bowl and mix it I got the error message.
Eventually I had to stop and measure out more scoops of lard, which required switching my wooden spoon for the scoop, since I was also holding a Dagger of Seduction (and wearing a Merc Helm of Seduction, if that matters). After I switched back, I was able to mix the Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough without any trouble… for awhile. (I didn’t realize right away that was what made it work)
Eventually though the problem popped up again (when I prematurely grabbed the mix before it was done, and tried to put it back and finish mixing it, it said “You are not sure what to do with this”) Again, the problem resolved when I switched to measuring lard and back. This happened three times in all. I didn’t put together that it was when I switched tasks that it started working until the third time it happened, so I didn’t have a chance to try just switching tools to see if that was what was fixing it.

It would be helpful if measures were numbered.
It would be extremely helpful for writing music to be able to just play the last measures added. It would be useful for RP purposes, too, since that is how one often practices a piece… working on one section at a time, or you might want to share part of something you had written.

Since you can set the sharps and flats for the overall piece of music, you should be able to insert naturals. Otherwise, if you need to cancel one of the sharps/flats for the key you are using anywhere in the music, your only alternative is to write in all the sharps and flats throughout by hand.

Several times now a sheet of music I have been editing would, after I closed it and reopened it, display only the first line, even when I went back to edit mode, had already saved it, loaded it to a second sheet, and restarted the game.
Needless to say, this is making it impossible to finish writing the piece of music!
