I don't quite recall what requirements, if any, were necessary to unlock the crafting feature on JP, but for the CBT I could not find the option for it at the room terminal. I'm guessing it was like gathering, where there was a required tutorial/cutscene thing somewhere before gathering points would appear, but I never found anything of the sort wandering around the ship.
So did anyone else manage to get crafting going? Or was it perhaps disabled entirely for the CBT?
