**Summary:**  
My hearthlings will not craft the workbenches specific to their job which in turn renders the game unplayable for me. I can bring up the crafting menu, click the workbench, click the craft button and the game will make the sound as if the job is being queued but nothing happens. I’ve been googling for days to no avail. please tell me somebody has had the same or similar issue because i just want to play ☹

**Steps to reproduce:**

1.

**Expected Results:**

It’s not part of the problem as you just downloaded, but Smart Crafter is actually included in ACE so you don’t need them both. I think it is actually an issue with Yangz Yingz. Try removing that and see if it works
