« on: July 14, 2010, 09:47:43 am »

im wondering how to get dwarves to get new clothes after the rot off their body, its just not right!

half my miners walk around naked with a pick

i found a migrant in the fortress that only had a quiver equiped

none of my ~15 child dorfs have clothes!

My fortress has about 30 dwarven kids in it, and I want to see them all wearing leather.

Why don't you have a seat right over there?

Can you assign a civilian uniform? I've never tried, but tis worth looking.

You can put the dwarfs in a squad and assign them a uniform to wear instead of their civilian clothing.

I was a big fan of the nudist colony too.  Then somebody tracked some forgotten beast's ichor throughout my fort.

Now I'm a big fan of shoes and gloves.  Can live without the loincloths though.

That, and clothing works pretty well at preventing damage.

For what reason, I cannot fathom.
