Do your survivors change their clothes (on their own) as the seasons change??

[Francesco]

I have winter and summer attire for all of my survivors. I've worked long and hard to get to this point. It's early summer and I just got the first heat wave. Not too crazy 99 F. 3 of my survivors are still wearing their winter clothes and are suffering heatstroke. They're not hanging around the bank of furnaces or anything they're just going about their day. I'm going to monitor them for a bit but are they supposed to change their clothes on their own?

Afaik they should grab clothing or take off clothing depending on their cold and heat tolerance. I don't know if that action is also tied to their work schedule, if applicable. Or other factors. I usually manually order them to change clothes depending on the season or event. It's not a game ender if they walk around with the wrong clothes while they wait for their turn to change.

They usually change if they get heatstroke or hypothermia, and when they happen to get around to it, but not before then. It's often easier to just tell them to do it manually.

Giving it a little time seemed to work itself out. They changed their gear fairly quick after getting heatstroke. A few of them left their fur coats on while putting on a straw hat and tee shirt but it seemed to work out.

It just has to stay within their tolerance level that you can check in their equipment page.

They should be a bit more pro-active. They should also take what tools available for their tasks. The player should set the parameters for them to change. Used clothing should be disposed of automatically.

They should know when to change their clothes, this should not be a micro management thing.... as long as clothes are available for the season

Should yes, doesn't always. Noticed during heat waves they just buzz around until they drop rather than pick up new clothes that would help.
