Dont need no helmet!
« on: May 04, 2013, 12:17:17 pm »

So my military in this fortress is of the copper variety. I've assigned them a copper armament, and made it. I have 10 copper helms sitting in my forges. My [m]ilitary->[e]quipment screen says the dwarves have their helmets, but clearly they do not. I've taken them off their uniforms and readded them, forbid and unforbid, and while they are still claimed [even after and during the forbidding.], they still refuse to actually put them on. Thoughts?

You forget to toggle "replace clothing" and they all have caps of some fabric on?

well yeah, i left it on over clothing. didn't want a naked dwarves running around while i made armor. but would that affect it? I don't normally have this problem. They're wearing everything else just fine.

You could just set it to replace clothing and add some trousers, socks and a shirt along with the metal gear and hoods/cloaks, deliberatley leaving off the caps which prevent things being put on over them.
