[40b] Plate mail on top of chain mail
« on: October 20, 2008, 07:57:57 pm »
I told my captain of the guards to wear iron chain mail and he did. Later, when I had steel plate mail, I told him to wear the steel plate mail and he did too... right on top of the chain mail.

It says upper body - iron chain mail and upper body - steel plate mail.

I'd like to know how the game calculates damage to the chest with him wearing both :P

I'm pretty sure that's supposed to happen.

Yeah, the layering is supposed to happen, but it isn't consistent and the interface isn't very helpful here.  This is part of what I'll be working on, and hopefully there will be a resolution at some point...  I'm not sure exactly when it'll be super-satisfying as opposed to simply better.
