Crafting UI weirdness

[Serenity]

So I just had a bit of an issue/annoyance with the crafting menu. I made a bow and arrows. And when I made a bow I could select tools I didn't have. Namely the regular knife and hatchet. It defaulted to the knife, but since I didn't have one it didn't show the crafting button. That confused me a great deal at first as I didn't even notice the tool selection. And when crafting in one hour increments I constantly needed to select the right tool again. It shouldn't be that way

That the game unfortunately doesn't save the default tool has been a major annoyance for a long time, but I can't remember it showing tools as an option you don't even have. Is that new? I haven't played a longer game in a while.

I like that it shows them as options even if you don't have the tool.  It allows me to see what tool I might want to grab out of my locker and how using each affects the total time needed to complete the item.

@Serenity, I think it's always been this way. I agree with @UpUpAway95 that it's nice to show them, but it drives me crazy that the game defaults to tools that you don't have (and can never have on some difficulties).

There's more little niceties that could be added. For instance, if you have a torch lit and start a fire, select the torch. If the sun is out and you have the mag lens, select it.
