There is a permissions system in place to restrict the crafting and use of certain outfit tools, and that's good. The system lacks some granularity and fineness, but it works for restricting access and making sure some people don't waste resources.

The problem is that there is no way of seeing who crafts or uses items. As an example, say that resources are disappearing but you don't know who is using them. What is the outfit leader to do but restrict everyone's access? There is no way to find out who the resource waster is other than haphazard guessing based on hearsay. If people in an outfit start throwing accusations around it could really sour the mood. The only way to stop the resource leak for sure is to remove everyone's access, but that removes fun.

Such an issue could be solved if a simple inventory log for the Armory was added. Simply a list with who crafted/used what item and when would be sufficient. Resource trades should probably be present in that list as well. Just this little addition would be great for better organization within an outfit.

And as a bonus maybe some stats could be added as well; the amount of orbitals the outfit has used in total or who has called the most light anvils could be fun to see.
