So picture this: I recently got an Antigua from Brinks and rolled a damage v. Gremlin high. Knowing that would be perfect for a Blackhawk, I bought an Antigua from the AH with damge v. Fiends very high for a Silversix. The time finally comes to make my Fiend level dream gun (Silversix)! I buy the energy, mooch 2 gizmos from a friend, click on the Silversix recipe and hit craft! Little did I know, the machine does not prompt you to chose the correct candidate for the craft.... You can guess what happened. So now I have a *censored* Silversix with Gremlin high >:(

Please for the love of god add a feature that makes you choose which weapon you want to upgrade when you have duplicates!

Yes. I never crafted a stuff while having other same type of items in inventory but i imagine it can be trouble and i noticed that item to craft autoamticaly jumps into alchemy machine.

Alchemy machine should demand you to manually drag item to the item window or at least click it from your inventory.

You can equip the one you don't want to craft. But yes, I imagine that would be very painful.

Above the craft button you would have seen the antigua that was about to be used floating in a circle.
You should have hover over it and maybe drag/drop worked there.

I can't try it right now, but if it's true the only thing missing is an extra prompt. If it's not, then make it work like that

there is a feature like this

the first one u get is automatically placed in, but if you want another just like juances suggested, drag it in to replace the one you don't want.

Yes, I was aware you could hover and see the specific weapon and that you could chose, but when you're exited to make a weapon you've been working hard to make, you don't think about that :P

wow...

That is pretty infuriating that something like that would happen; if that happens to me while I'm crafting my sun shards and rock salt bombs with UVs, I'm going to bite my own head off.

At least list the UV in the box somewhere so you don't have to hover over the gun.

Antigua UV gremlin VH

I like pawn's idea. Or you could just have the info box pinned open somewhere on the screen so you know what you're crafting

For what it's worth

in a situation like this, my understanding is you can file a support ticket, and have the crafting reversed. I am in the habit of hovering over my item before i craft, for this simple reason. +1 to the idea, as it would be very good.

The alchemy machine isn't the problem it's you, you could have easily dragged and dropped the Antigua you wanted to use into the circle.
