How does Clothing stats work?

[Owlie]

I genuinely have no idea. I can guess that the water stats makes you resist being wet, I don't know that the other stats do though

Flame (Orange): Keeps you warm.
"Sitting guy": PROPABLY tells you the weight (like how much stamina you gonna lose while sprinting)
Water (Blue): Better movement in water.

It shares the same symbol as the 3D printer loading icon, so I'm even more confused by that

Yeah, if you can collect more of those, you could play dress up with Kelvin and Virginia.

Orange is warmth
"Sitting guy" is comfort, so more rest when sleeping
Blue is water resistance

I think ConflicTZv did some testing with cold and the winter coat and wetsuit maybe.

Winter coat affects cold levels, wetsuit prevents getting wet (Cold effects still need tweaking). I'm not sure if tactical or hoodie or others do anything? You can give those clothes to Kelvin if you want him in jammies or looking like a butler.

Clothes effect getting cold , running & swimming speeds.

So you want high comfort on land, high warmth on winter (but winter is broken anyway yet it should help with the stamina drain) & you want the swimming suit "clothes" to swim faster, but don't use it outside of water cause it will slow you.

Thermal protection- The higher it is the more temperature your character retains, the less of a penalty you get when it's cold. Being wet negates all thermal protection though, which is why it doesn't seem to do much when it snows (with cold penalties set to high at least, I did not test it on normal).

Wetness protection- Anything other than the wetsuit doesn't seem to do much. Every piece of clothing gets wet in water, rain and snow just as quickly, and it doesn't seem to affect how much thermal protection is lost. The only exception is the wetsuit, which has 100% wetness protection, so wetness cannot increase while wearing it. Using this and deer armor or chicken noodle soup during winter is the only way to keep 100% of your stamina that I've found. But it comes at the cost of movement speed and immersion breaking :/

Comfort- Gives more rest while sleeping and supposedly increases movement speed, but I've tested the spacesuit versus the pajamas and noticed no difference.

In it's current state the cold effects don't really do much, well if you stop and think about it yes.. But how much does one really care about the current "cold penalties" when your running around trying to get that defense up as fast as possible. I think most people ignore it ,just like the current "dirty water" These mechanics for sure needs an upgrade and tweaking. I hope the Devs are working hard at fixing these important things

There was another thread actually that was complaining about how the winter coat allows the player to still have some stamina penalty, so I'd say some players are feeling the effect. Not being able to run as far or do as much labor quickly is a penalty. I understand that's not the penalty you want and you feel it should be more severe. (That's not really something to get into on this convo as its off topic from clothing) I left a link in the other thread for your what does winter do so they could see the info Conflict put in about the effects of winter in current game situation.

Defiance won't be happy until his character dies of hypothermia.

the sitting guy is like your relaxed state when sleeping. the higher that is the better rest you get.

Affirmative, it's basically "comfort" so higher comfort = better rest bonus

Sitting guy is how much energy you regenerate from sleeping.
