Fort Mode Made Items
« on: December 09, 2012, 05:33:55 pm »

Items I make in fortress mode will be Dwarven sized, right? So if I made an adamatine suit for an adventurer, he'd have to be a dwarf?

Yes, or an elf or (with modding) a goblin. You can't make human sized armor.

I thought so, I just wanted to be sure. Thanks :)

Elf and dwarf equipment is NOT the same size, so only dwarves will be able to wear dwarf equipment.  Elf equipement will show up as "narrow" (and unwearable) if you're a dwarven adventurer.  I've not played as an elf (wooden armor? screw that!) enough to know what the game says if you find dwarven equipment as an elf, but I am 95% sure you can't wear it. 

If you want to make a fort that produces human (or elven) sized armor, then you will need to add [CIV_CONTROLLABLE] to the appropriate civilization, then gen a new world and make a fort using humans, elves, etc...

That doesn't happen anymore. Elf and dwarf equipment has been the same size for like 2 years now.
