Dying bench, by Rube Goldberg

What’s behind the decision to move Dye functionality to the Dyer’s Workstation?

First and foremost, to unify the Inventory GUI. This lets us create a small set of consistent buttons corresponding to actions you will have when selecting an item, instead of varying options that can sometimes be confusing.

The second reason is that it helps justify the physical space taken up by the workstation, which previously was only used to store crafting recipes. With this new functionality, you now have another reason to return home after picking some new items.

This explanation is difficult to accept. This game is how old? And you are just now thinking of unifying the button layout? The old UI worked just fine, and I cannot recall ever having a new player getting confused over it.

Plus, you want to “justify” the physical size of the bench? You do realize the bench doesn’t have to be that large. Just make a smaller tier 2 bench and let players go back to using looted dye when they find it.
