[40d] Adamantine clothing deteriorates
« on: September 18, 2008, 08:35:02 pm »

My most recent fortress had an abundace of adamantine.  So I figured I would make each of my dwarves at the time a small set of clothes with it.  This stuff is supposed to be indestructable, yet after just a few years the masterpiece adamantine tunics are showing deterioration.

I know adamantine clothing didn't wear out in the 2d version.  So I am guessing that when adamantine got moved into the raws that property didn't come along.  Perhaps treating any metal based cloth as indestructible would work.

I don't see what the problem is.  It's just becoming a bit threadbare.  It's not like the strands themselves are rotting or anything.

I've got this as a note under Req149 now, apparently.  I must have put that in when I raw'd the metals.
