I would like to add my voice to the request to make the crafting text larger and the UI much less transparent. If you're anywhere with a busy background (such as the average player's storage area), then it is damn near IMPOSSIBLE to see anything. Also, things in the far right column of any chest have their text mixing with the chest options and the whole thing becomes an unreadable mess.
I have noticed that my spawn point does not seem to save, either. I had to reset my spawn in my main world, played for a while, then saved and exited, remembered there was something I wanted to check and went back in... and appeared right back at world spawn, not at the bed where I set my spawn before. That's more than a little frustrating considering that there might have been enemies waiting for me there.
Also, can we get the sprites for the NPCs on the main map to be larger, please? They're hard to see and it's difficult to make out which is which. My traveling merchant spawned and I could not find him on the map. Then he managed to get killed and I still have no idea where the flip he even was. Even zoomed in as close as I could get the NPC icons are really hard to make out, and they're too damn tiny to be very useful.
