"Poor" Clothes

[Rak3]

Is there a way to breakdown bad clothes? or get rid of them somehow? traders do not buy them from me and they just sit there wasting space and pile up

Besides that you just shot their clothes up with your miniguns (while they were still wearing them).

I've done extensive testing. :)

The clothing is in the same poor shape whether you blow them up with grenades, shoot them to pieces with miniguns, or leap out of a sideroom and stab them in the neck.

I've had guys I PUNCHED to death come out wear 39/100, awful body armor.

My theory is that they are wearing anime girl clothes. You know ... the kind that get ripped to shreds instantly in every fight.

Any kind of damage done to the pawn will also affect wear and tear on apparel.
Pretty sure devmode will alow you to simply spawn in a raid and then look at what they're wearing, if you wanna find out!

Mmm I should then really name my colonist Issei, Rias, Akeno, etc...

Beside that, to stay on topic, I either burn them in incinerator, or let them decay as well...

It veries I ahd one guy die with a 97% parka once, I think he got shot in the head by my rifle though, and he didn't die he bleed out freezing becuase I imediatly striped his parka off fo my colony that only had one parka at the time.

The thing is punching, stabing or shooting your tearing up the fabric pretty good, the arm covers the jackets and shirt, hit in the leg or foot, you just tore his pants up. Punching is a bit op but at same time last time I punched somehting down it took awhile and he took a lot of damage to get knocked out. Also raiders tend to come with damaged stuff to begin with.

I check their gear all the time to see how many grenadiers they got, and more often then not its 70% or less intack you get the rare 90+% guy here and there normally he is the best i nteh group equipment wise. But for most part I seen people show up with 28% coats on
