Hi, Love your mod. Plans for 1.0?

could you add a double sleeping padded spot?

Here's some facts about kevlar: http://www.technologystudent.com/joints/kevlar2.html

So basically we're both right, it's a polymur that forms synthetic fibers which are woven into cloth, in the case of kevlar body armor.

For the purposes of this game, I'd say having it be deconstructed into plasteel would be the closest fit, from in game resources.

If you're talking about Kevlar, I think that's actually a polymer, not cloth......

I believe bullet proof armor is typically made of a combination of layers of cloth with steel plates protecting the centre of mass. Lighter versions can be only cloth thogh, but they'd also offer less protection. The YouTuber Metatron did a video on modern bulletproff vests you may be interested in that goes into it more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uZ1KNbJdGk

alright fair enough, thanks for the info

@Eddy63 Unfortunately yes - the bug has already been reporting as still present in this B19 version (check Discussions).

I didn't include recipes for flak jackets / flak pants yet - not sure whether to add those or not, to be honest, as they aren't a pure fabric garment (and a garment with armor integrated into it feels like it may not be so practical to salvage cloth from). I'll consider it for the next update, whenever that might be.

Are the pants and parkas still broken? Also did you implemented the new flak pants and flak jacket?

I'm running into a possible bug with this mod. I'll post the details in the discussion section as I can't fit them here.

Thanks for updating!

@Telkir
!

Updated for Beta 19.

Update inbound for this mod?

but how can i uncheck the option for non-construction of a deadman's non-apparel?

found a known bug; seems to apply to only pants; will continue and monitor it; thanks for a great mod; ";"

So i have this and the Dye Vat mod and ngl i have so much pink it makes me super happy but what i'm not happy about which i've blundered many times now in not realizing that they deconstruct everything no matter the quality XD

looking through the comments tho it seems u know of the issue and are in the middle of fixing it i shall keep waiting patiently for that fix :3

Thanks for the awesome mods <3

The (non-)deadman apparal deconstruction problem... is there anyway to solve it?

thanks for updating

Thanks @Proxyer - I updated the links!

I am pleased that a wonderful Mod has corresponded to B18. And Sub-MOD of Japanese translation for this Mod also corresponded to B18. I will report this to the author. Thank you.

Please make same mechanism for Devil textile!

The A18 unstable prerelease of all TMods is now available through the Ludeon forum thread [ludeon.com].

@KarratKake - Try this:

* Go to <Steam> / steamapps / workshop / content / 294100 / 726236520
* Open Defs / RecipeDefs / ExpandedClothProduction.xml in a text editor
* On line 25, change the number in "<Cloth>6</Cloth>" to set how many pieces of cloth are produced from 20 cotton fibre
* Save and enjoy

Is there any way to edit the mod file so that I can change the recipe for cloth production to put it more in line with vanilla cotton plant > cloth ratio? Right now it's just not putting out enough cloth to carpet what I want to carpet.

@Dumbledood - No trouble. Glad you found it at last!

Oh, there it is! Researchpal made it appear, I missed it at first. Sorry for the trouble.

@Telkir Thanks man. I reloaded with researchpal to see if the research topic had been placed behind another mod research topic or something, because as you guessed, I've modded it nearly to death. But, for whatever reason, cotton processing is nowhere to be found. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Love the idea, great mod! Think I'm gonna try reloading without it for the time being as I'm going on 2 years with only cotton, no cloth. Lol

@Dumbledood - It should be somewhere around the start of the research tree, here:

If you're not seeing it then try using a research tab mod like ResearchPal to prettify the UI and make sure everything is shown when many mods adds lots of topics:

Hey, could anyone tell me where the research is for the textile bench? I've been looking for it and can't find it. I think it might be a mod-conflict, since I've spent a while now searching. Stuck with a bunch of cotton fibre now. :P Would be appreciated!

Its probably one of the starwars mods...

@{SCG} Thunder Rahja - Please check previous comments.

ya no worries and thx for the info!

@Eddy63 - I did make mention of both these things earlier in the comments. The processing speed calculation is wrong purely because I haven't touched that file since adding it many alphas ago; revising it is on my todo list. Deconstruction giving cloth rather than e.g. devilstrand or hyperweave isn't trivial to fix and will be done at the same time as getting dead man's filtering to work. As I said below, I can't give any estimate for when this will be, but when I have news, I'll post about it.

Also is it intentional that deconstructing clothes only gives you cloth, regardless of its material? At the moment I get cloth from deconstructing synthread pants. or any other material. Leather, fur, devilstrand etc. get deconstructed into cloth. I thought it was different in the past, where leather pants would give you a bit of leather, but I cant remember if it realy was like this.

Hey dude I found an issue with the cotton processing speed calculation. One colonist has Skill Factors Crafting (1): x240%. Another colonist has Skill Factors Crafting (18): x70%. Why does the one with crafting 1 gets a faster processing speed than the one with 18? doesn't seem right. This is not about the final result taking health and global work speed into account. this is purely about the skill factor only. Looks like everyone with little crafting skill gets a higher processing speeds than skilled people. seems inverted

I think this is essentially the same bug that has already been reported. As you can see below, Telkir is working on it.

hey i have a problem similar to the dead mans apperal one. i set the bill to deconstruct pants that are poor quality or lower but my colonists keeps on picking up a pair of superior pants and trying to shred it.

Unfortunately I've not made any progress on this problem yet, at least from the XML side. It's going to take a DLL to fix properly I think, and at the same time, will finally allow deconstruction to return appropriate materials instead of just cloth.

Not sure when I'll be able to offer an update but I'll keep you all posted. Meanwhile, thanks for your continued patience.

I went to deconstruct dead men's apparels only. but all apparels were deconstructed. filtering is not work.

Cool mate, thanks for your work and time

@Hanar @Eddy63 - I'll try to set aside some time this weekend to work on this. Thanks for your patience in the meantime.

got the same problem here i set up pants from 0 to 49 % to be deconstruct, so when i craft a new pant they deconstruct it just after, was not understanding why the pants i was making for my colonist whit no pants was vanishing XD but ya bug here

Hey dude additiohnaly to Oxibacon have noticed another issue with pants deconstruction. No matter what values I define (e.g. 0% - 49% and awful - normal), ALL pants are being picked for deconstruction regardless of their values. Even if i untick all "pants" from the list of resources (or clear all). It works fine for other clothes like dusters etc.

this should be in vanilla

@Oxibacon - Okay, yes, I see what you mean. At the moment I'm not certain how this can be fixed because there's no clear difference between my way of handling those recipes compared to, say, the "burn apparel" recipe attached to a campfire. I'll experiment and will update with a fix if/when I find one.

There seems to be an issue with the pants and parka job orders in which the pawns will ignore the fact that they're only suppose to break down dead man's apparel (unticking the check box for include non deadman's apparel) It's not the big of deal except for when you have a tailoring benchmark to have so many on hand and the pawns keep making new pants and then recycling them right after they're made...

Thank you, Telkir!
