I had to just walk away from my recipe in progress. Any chance this could be looked into / corrected?

[Cleric Guild, Cauldron]
An enormous cast iron cauldron with thick, hinged ring handles dominates the training room. Sturdy metal hanging arms attached to a trammel are positioned above the fire pit, ready to adjust the height of the cauldron. Rough wooden stirring paddles, spyders, pokers, and hooks are neatly arranged along the wall, within easy reach.

>look in caul
The cast iron cauldron is currently lit. So far, you've added trinket oil and 3 doses of small enruned bone, chanted Heroism, simmered it, added fragrant white lily, infused mana, and added powdered white sunstone.

>alchemy refract
You should remain disciplined in your studies and stick with the task the Training Administrator gave you.

refracts can only be done in the alchemy workshops, so you're supposed to do a different recipe, like blue crystals.

Why? Is this intentional or an oversight?

while I can't make an official statement as to Naos' intentions, the cauldron rooms were never coded for the sunlight/moonlight. Getting those rooms built outside of the guilds is impossible (I've tried), so I'm betting there's a huge coding issue there.

I would imagine based on the messaging in the workshops that its intentional that you have to be in one to use a lense to refract. The messaging is something along the lines of "you gather one of the unused alembics blah blah blah" in the workshop room. I agree it sucks. It'd be nice to refract wherever I'm working.
