[Suggestion] Add lower tier crafter to higher tier stations
When progressing the crafting benches/stations we end up with a bunch stations to craft the same type of items. The best example of this is cooking. It becomes a pain when we have the campfire, cooking bench, kitchen bench, biofuel stove, potbelly stove... As the player gets higher tier crafting / cooking stations we should be able to craft all recipes possible from the lower tier.
The biofuel stove should have all cooking recipes (Recipes that require cooking such as all potbelly stove recipes, campfire recipes).
The kitchen bench should have all other food recipes (Recipes like rendered fat, fruit salad)

FSD MergedCurrently, when we start off at lvl 10, we gain the work bench. At level 20 we get the machining bench. So on and so forth. My suggestion has to do with reducing the floor space used. When we upgrade to a new tier it should also be able to craft all of the previous tier equipment as well. Simply give the new benches a tab for each previous tier. This would reduce the amount of floor space necessary by only needing the latest workbench.

John MergedWe skipped the tier 2 textile bench and went straight for the advanced. We discovered that the regular leather armor was not craftable on this bench. I feel like it should be :D

Brian HillardExact same issue with the Advanced Masonry Bench.
I had the standard Masonry bench, but broke it down when I crafted the advanced masonry bench.
Only to find out I can't craft stone fireplaces or geode lights etc.
So now I have two Masonry benches.
Why? -

Abby MergedHoping this gains traction. I don't mind having workbenches for a variety of purposes, but I feel that at the very least the crafting bench recipes could be absorbed by the machining bench, and likewise for the fabricator as you level up. It would make game play more enjoyable if I had one bench to go to for managing and working with those recipes vs running between three benches constantly.
