stick, cloth, tallow
Alright items are as follows-
1 Stick, 1 Cloth (5 Fibrous Leaves you can collect them from destroying tree leaves) and Tallow (from killing Creatures)
Process?
Make a Crafting table.
Continue to make a Stone Firepit then put a Crucible on top of it to make a furnace, smelt 4 bits of Metal (Copper is probably easiest) collect Ancient Tech and make a workbench, all 4 blocks need to be put next to each other- once you build the workbench continue to input the metal and tech etc then build an extractor and do the same again by placing all 4 blocks next to each other.
Input the Fibrous leafs into the Extractor and collect the fibre from the output, put back into the workbench and make a cloth, you need 5 leafs. put the cloth a tallow and a stick into the workbench and proceed to make a basic torch

Also to make metal tools you need to put fossils into the extractor to create fossil extract, then combine it with whatever metal and stick you need.

Yea things like a Torch, why is it so complicated to craft?!?! I think the devs have gone overboard with the complexity for crafting recipes

I think it’s for realism. using a stick, cloth, and animal fat (tallow) is fairly realistic. Compared to a stick and coal. It also frees up the use of coal lol. While I agree it’s a bit more complicated and to a degree harder to make, it feels more realistic in a sense.

I agree. Furthermore, torches could be simplified to a degree if there was another version of a torch with less material cost, but perhaps burned out faster as a result. First idea that comes to my mind would be to simply allow us to put sticks in a fire pit, and get burning sticks as a short term light source. No cloth or tallow required, and a stone firepit is a low tier item.

Totally agree with you in regards of favoring more complex recipes.
However, a torch is the most basic item and I think in this special case it would be adequate to simplify the recipe a bit.
I think [1] sticks + [3-5] leaves would make a decent recipe for a basic torch.
The devs could introduce this as ‘basic torch’ that breaks after a set amount of time or emits a bit less light and keep the current torch with its current recipe ingame.

or even if getting the leaves was more of a chance cause i mined like 40 and only got 3 leafs
Gem torches seem to be easier to make… initial first pass recipe for them is 1x Stick & 1x Rough [insert gem name here] … although you’ll probably need an advanced tool to mine the gems in the first place!

Today the tools are red, last time they was black.
I think the tools and torches are very big to, take away much of the view, in small spaces its hard to see whats beyond.
