I have a big gripe with the fact that when trying to improve something in the crafting menu, the number of improvement items often resets from however many I choose to 1 before being able to hit the improvement button, thus resulting in failure and some perfectly good resources wasted.

Hemming, lining, embroidery and the lot are hard enough to come by in this game (too hard since you can't even buy them from the vendor) when you want to create a full set of armour. It's really annoying to have them wasted because of something this silly.

I'd really like to see the drop rate improved or at least that bug fixed.
