DF Gameplay Questions / [50.08] Squad refusing to wear their equipment
« on: June 23, 2023, 05:42:44 am »
I start this thread to follow up with another one I started on Reddit but no-one found the solution to my problem so I am trying my luck here.
I just created a new 10-dwarf squad, their uniform consists of helm, gaunlets, mailshirt, breatsplate, greaves, high-boots, shield and battleaxe, all in steel. They refuse to wear it: they only wear greaves and their battleaxe. Here is a summary of the situation and of I have done so far:
I have also tried to set their schedule to "no order" with no labour enabled so that they can have free time to pick up their equipment and to follow them to see what they do. They just wander in the fortress with no job, occasionally going to the tavern or to the temple.
Here is a screenshot that shows the current state of their equipment. Note that each equipment is in yellow, which suggest that it is available; they just don't want to wear it. Interestingly enough they are OK with wearing greaves and a weapon.
This is very frustrating as it is my first successful fortress on this version. For information I am playing on Linux (not sure it is relevant).
Any idea about what to do? Thanks a lot!

- Uniform are set to replace clothing and exact matching
- Stockpiles with equipment are just by the barracks
- I have plenty of equipment and nothing is forbidden
- I clicked on "update" several times
