34.07 clothing issues
« on: August 20, 2012, 03:26:07 am »
I have clothing issues, playing version 34.07


Firstly, civilians seem to be hoarding clothing to their rooms. I've figured that this is a known issue with no solution. I have tried to reassign EVERY room and use DFHack's cleanowned and some of the clothing actually DOES get moved back to storages, but not all of it. I have a good computer so all the cluttering garbage isnt that great a problem, but this issue probably leads to the second, much worse problem.

Military dwarves want their clothing too. They dont replace their clothing when in duty so I've made the clothing part of their uniform. However they seem to have wearing the assigned clothing pretty randomly(but exactly the pieces of armor and weapons that I've assigned to them), often missing shoes, shirts, trousers, sometimes all. And this is giving them bad thoughts... I've already lost a number of dwarves to suicides.

It seems that some of the clothing that is "claimed" and inside the chests in the now reassigned rooms has been claimed(but not moved) by at least 1 Dwarf besides the military dwarves that are supposed to wear it... My clothing storages are full of masterwork and other high quality socks, trousers, shirts, so lack of clothing most definitely isnt the issue. Civilians seem to be wearing clothing OK but often claim pieces of it and move good clothing to their rooms while continuing to wear worn out clothing.

Any suggestions? I've already had to turn invaders off as I cant support the military deaths due to Dwarves refusing to wear the clothing assigned in the uniforms.  :(

I suggest updating to 0.34.11. Toady fixed a lot of clothing bugs in the last versions. Now dwarfs lose ownership of broken clothes, armor counts as clothing, and children don't tantrum if they don't wear clothes when they are old enough.

I wonder if the game has become odd.

"cleanowned" will remove ownership from every piece of clothing in the entire fort.  I think what you want to use is "cleanowned scattered" which clears ownership from the clothes scattered around on the floor.  All that loose clothing will be marked for dumping so if you want to gather it all together instantly, use "autodump" next.
