Max Headwear
« on: May 28, 2012, 11:35:13 am »
What's the max amount of headwear that you can put on?
http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/Armor#Size.2C_Permit.2C_and_layering_armor
The wiki page on Armor says you can have two caps, a helm, and hoods, but I found that I could only put on only one helm or cap at a time. Am I doing it right, and is the wiki wrong?
Is the other info on that page correct? (I think it seems correct.)
Is it that humans have bigger heads? Is the headgear info correct for fortress mode?

As far as I know, caps and masks got the "shaped" setting in the last few versions, so you cant layer them with a helmet anymore.

That would explain it. I better change the equipment on my fortress mode military then...
Just to clarify, I was able to wear hoods ok.

Yeah, because hoods and headscarves aren't [SHAPED]. Basically, you can't fit two "shaped" pieces of equipment on the same body part. If you need to know whether an item has this attribute, you can just look that up in the raws :)
