v0.31:Clothing
| This article is about an older version of DF. |
Clothing is items made out of Template:L or Template:L which is worn by sentient Template:L to protect them from the elements, from damage, and to cover themselves. Articles of clothing can work similar in concept to Template:L, but distinguished by the fact that they are owned by your dwarves and, in theory, provide significantly less protection against attacks. There have been humorous bugs in the past where animal teeth were not hard enough to bite through silk shirts and artifact glass serrated disks could not pierce Template:L clothes.
Clothes are stored as Template:L, and may be stored in Template:Ls.
While in a stockpile, clothing is usually safe from being damaged, but as soon as a dwarf puts on an item of clothing, it begins to degrade, and will Template:L eventually.
Size does matter
Clothing and armor marked as "large" can not be made or worn by dwarves*, but will still be offered by human and elven Template:Ls. "Small" articles of clothing and armor usually come from killed Template:Ls and are also unusable. However, all of these unusable items can be sold to caravans for a nice price. In previous versions Template:Ls dropped clothing items labeled as "narrow"; however in the current version goblin clothing will fit your dwarves. Note that these items will not count toward Template:L (or exported wealth) unless first Template:Ld.
- (* with one exception: Items made from leather from Template:Ls will appear as "large rat leather ______". Human-sized gloves made from large rat leather would be "large large rat leather gloves." There are no "rats" that provide leather, so while confusing, this is definitive.)
