Dorfs (and Kobolds) running about naked.
« on: June 25, 2009, 08:48:30 pm »

Nearly any creature of mine that grows up in my fortresses never puts on clothing of any sort-unless they're military and I order them to put on leather/chain/plate/whatever. The same happens with my Kobolds, even if there's a glut of extra clothing.

Why are they doing this? How do I fix it?

(Just as a note, computer sucks (gig and a half of RAM) so I've never started up the Dwarven Economy. Kobolds of course can't do it at all.)

I don't see kobolds as the clothing wearing kind, since they are just a step above beastmen. As for the dwarfs, maybe you should make some more clothes?

I wish I knew. Maybe when they grow up to adults, they realize their lack of clothes and then put some on?

My freezing fortress, with the economy turned off, hasn't lasted long enough for a child born on site to grow up to an adult, so I couldn't tell you whether it would work or not, but I can certainly hope that it does.

Kobolds wear tunics and loincloths. And again, GLUT OF CLOTHES. Seriously. Tons of the stuff.

I say it's because your avatar is a pimp.

Their clothes are eitehr rotten and you gotta make more, your wordgen is so far up in the future that all clothes have rotten (dunno if thats possible), or your version is a bit shizzled up, and you need to redownload it.

You sure? I'd really rather not try and update my install of Kobold Camp; to be frank no one HAS updated it in forever and I don't feel confident enough about raws and such to update it to the current version.

Especially since my last attempt at modding, source of my Kobold Pimp avatar (it's the new Noble sprite) ended in every single kobold sprite bugging into a collection of horizontal lines.
