Bulk Sewing

Description
NOTE: After DFHack introduced a tailor script, this mod is more or less pointless now so I won't be updating it. Go get DFHack!

Newest version (1.0.1) adds several reactions, thus it needs generating a new world to work properly. Sorry!

Set and forget. Adds several available tasks to the clothier, leatherworker and metalsmith's forge.

Bulk Sewing
Takes 4 of any available cloth (or leather) and produces mostly random clothing ready for your dwarves to wear, with a decent chance to make it a full head/body/leg/feet set (standard non-random uniform is included). Works for just any cloth, as well as specifically plant/silk/yarn. Also works with leather.

Armor Making
If you feel like you can't wrap your head around the armor sets, the mod adds a few tasks to create full armor sets. Works with leather (one set) and metal (two sets). The latter works with any metal that allows armorsmithing in vanilla, so if you want to make it out of something specific, restrict your stockpiles and feed specific metals into your forges!

Caveats:
Does not respect civ knowledge, and does not produce glove items. Thus, you still need to manually order gloves, mittens and gauntlets.

Equipping Armor:
For those who don't know, when making a uniform you ought to select "Replaces clothing" instead of "worn over clothing", as it causes issues with equipping shoes.

Additionally, to equip the heavy armor set, you need to make a custom uniform plan in the squads menu.
- helm
- breastplate
- chain mail
- leggings
- greaves
- high boots
- gauntlets

Hi, is this working in this current version? :barotrauma:

I think it no longer works in the current DF version.

I definitely added it to my mod list a couple of times. Maybe its some internal conflict with another of the mods I use? But there isn't so many of them. In any case I don't have the bulk sewing (or anything similar) option neither in clothier nor in work orders.

Thanks anyway, the idea seemed great, setting all those sewing orders in new fortress is always itchy

Oh! Thnaks for that mention, I didn't even notice that.

in the heavy armor set, both leggings and greaves has [SHAPED] tag in it and has the same [Armor] Layer, so dwarf can't equip both. To equip both you need to remove [SHAPED] tag in Greaves and/or Leggings

I have this mod installed and enabled on the world I'm in, but I'm also having trouble finding what the task is called in the work order list.

@Larzid - Currently, mods need to be installed before a world is made, and selected during worldgen.

@XXX_420_Bad_Boy - Not that I know of. Unfortunately my current modding ability is a bit limited.

Would it be possible for you to allow this mod to set sizes for the bulk clothes?
