Quick question about trade quests.

[Kadjai]

I need to deliver 4 plate armor for a quest, 2 of my pawns wore them briefly so they are only at 99%. Do I need to remake them because they are not in mint condition, or will these still be ok to complete the quest?

[jerrypocalypse]

As long as they're normal quality or higher (or whatever quality the quest says (never seen one need higher than normal), they should be fine. I used an 80% something gladius for a quest once and it was okay.

It's totally fine as long as they are normal+. They can be made out of wood too and nobody will say something.

Great, thanks for the info.

In the meantime I decided to save it and push ahead a day to see what would happen. They did accept my now 3 of 4 99%s, so that confirms everything.

In the second meantime, both of my bases got attacked by mechanoids during the day I waited, and everyone died in one base, and the other (my main) had temperatures of over 400 inside and my poor Alisendra melted to death. Fun to watch, and now to reload..!

: ( Sorry to hear. In general you don't have to invest too much on outside events and can focus on your colony. Stuff that happens outside tends to be rather low on the threat level, so you don't need to leave your colony unguarded (if this is what the issue was).
E.g. if you don't put your caravan full of like 10k wealth, you will usually only met like 1 raider or 2 small manhunters.

Oh no prob, I just reloaded it, I'm not on commitment mode and allow myself an occasional reload. It was kinda fun to have an excuse to watch my peeps die :P Not that I don't love them but its fun to see what would happen if I wasn't there. Not Much, apparently.

All in the name of doing my own science.

Note that while durability doesn't matter for trade quests, they won't accept Tainted apparel/armor.
