Armor using
« on: February 18, 2011, 10:39:32 pm »

When ever I try to equip armor of copper/steel/metal I can't. Is this because I need to have a higher armor level? Also when I'm attacked the skill doesn't go up. Is this because I dodge the attacks and don't get hit, AKA my armor isn't used?

Is this is in Fortress mode or Adventure mode?

What is the name of the armor?
If it is "large", "narrow", "small" or anything like thit it is for a different race and will not fit.
Just so you know, the armor user skill only effects your speed while wearing armor, it has nothing to do with how ofter your armor blocks hits.

Is your adventurer wearing any kind of head items?

No. In every version of DF adventure mode, I put away what I'm whering, and attempt to wear something else, like bronze.
