Since clothes wear out now, it would be nice to have some kind of clothes check plugin:
It can show:
- how many dwarfs have enough clothes to prevent bad thoughts;
- how many of them have first stage worn clothes ( xPig tail shirtx );
- how many unclaimed/unforbidden clothes in fortress stockpiles.
' cleanowned x dryrun '
will give you an idea.
similarly
' cleanowned scattered dryrun '
for clothing scattered about on the ground.
You can, if you want, cleanowned everything, which will be dumped into the nearest garbage dump. Then re-claim all the dumped clothing, forbid what you don't want them to wear, and they'll put all that back into stockpiles and/or on their body.
Yes, it may be a few days of bad thoughts, but in my experience, they survive if they're ecstatic when you start.
' fastdwarf 1 ' also, of course, makes this go much faster.
If you only want them to wear the clothing you make, go into the stocks menu and dump everything that isn't made with pig tails or rope reed or silk or whatever you're making it from. Then you can be sure they only have access to what you want them to wear, or at the very least, the list is much shorter.
