For anyone having problems with clothes.

[Mora]

I had to restart my game because I ran out of clothes like many people here.
In my new round I pick Vivien she Can't heal but she can make anything with fabrics 4x times faster.

18 hours takes to make a single piece of clothes , 5 pieces for 1 single colonist = 90 hours to make !!!! That's insane and game breaking.

If you only do a jacket , pants and boots that still is 54 hours a colonist working around 12 hours a day takes 4.5 days to finish 1 set for 4 colonists = 18 days at that point they should be about to break again.

Basically Vivien cuts all the crafting times by 4 at lv 10 crafting she is making a 3 piece set in a day.

-Grayson might not be as impactful as Vivien late game but he helps to make wood Items 4 times faster I always have spare cheap weapons thats very useful and he can craft most spears and bows in 2 hours or less.

Good tip. I ended up with naked colonists on account of not giving clothes any attention. Amusing, since I played rimworld quite a bit. Speaking of that game, now I think I get why there's a nudist colony in there.

why not make more workbenches and have everyone making clothes for a while

I had this problem after year 1! built another tailoring bench and set 2 people as priority 2, still took forever but now they all at least have clothes, not looking forward to needing to grind clothes out again though, but it teaches you for next time to put it on your priority list!

Ive reached the point where Ive got surplus in clothes. I had the same issue but once I had 3 people on crafting and two tailor benches, than 2 people were always making clothes and one crafting the other stuff. Eventually my large clothes cupboard filled up and now im breaking down old worn out clothes for cloth back to recycle

That's how I fix my first save but still having a single person that can craft at 4x times speed is like having 4 colonists doing clothes, efficiency alone was worth it.

If they add more colonists that can have the 4x crafting speed perk I would pick them without thinking it twice, specially if one could make electronics 4x times faster.

I hope they add electric machines that lets colonists do work faster and maybe research additions to "tack on" to the tables to increase the speed even more.

Since yeah, i have 6 colonists and 2 crafters, with all the stock im trying to keep stable .. clothes kind of get done and then i instantly have to restart the entire craft cycle again since the clothes are broken again xD

The thing that scares me about this stuff is that if it ends up being the last tech we unlock before we leave the planet or beat the game then there really isnt a point for it. Its like Raft where literally at the end of the game after you beat the final boss they give you blueprints for upgraded tools. For what though Im all done this file...

Vivian is a mandatory character if you like to have clothes on your guys. crafting speeds are so incredibly slow and items wear out incredibly quickly, even items you don't use wear if not stored. Until they balance those two factors I can't get by without Viv.

Got her in my new game after my colony was murdered by scorpions. Let's see what she can do. xD
