This mod modifies the values of certain craftable clothing items to make them more realistic with a 15°C body temperature hardiness.

The mod is meant to be played with a 15°C body temperature hardiness, which I think is a reasonable point at which the character should start wearing clothes. If played with a better hardiness (i.e. 10°C, 5°C etc), some clothing items will get too overpowered.

I adjusted the warmth values as they make sense to me, primarily by buffing the overcoats. Feel free to change the values to your liking in the patches.json.

 

NB! Several values have been adjusted in the latest release.

 

The changed values are (latest release changes bolded):

Reindeer herder fur coat - 25

Fur coat - 15 → 16

Warm robe - 6 → 8

Chateau blouse - 2 → 3

Reindeer herder collared shirt - 3.5 → 5

Scarlet ornate linen tunic - 2.5 → 3

Worn leather boots - 1

Nomad boots - 2

Minstrel boots - 2

Knee-high fur boots - 3

Thigh-high boots - 2

High leather boots - 2

Fur-lined reindeer herder shoes - 4.5

Reindeer herder trousers - 3 → 4

Chateau pants - 1.5 → 2.5

Homespun pants - 1.5 → 2.5

Fur gloves - 1 → 1.5

I’m waiting for someone to make the whole temperature system in the game logical, because what we have now is just awful😭

💬 Finwe , Oct 24th at 7:40 AM

Mod updated! Also, some warmth values adjusted - see description.

Malikyte I haven't tested in 1.21 yet; I'm still playing the previous release. However, it should be safe to test and remove from the mods folder if it shows any errors on world startup, or if the warmth values are not as expected.

Does it still work in 1.21?

keep in mind you can acclimate to much colder temperatures quite easily IRL (Cold -> Hot is easiest, Hot -> Cold sucks but is doable). It's not exactly a subjective stat as well, since it's meant to represent the temperature at which you can't keep homeostasis, and would start to lose body-heat faster than you can replace it

💬 Finwe , Feb 22nd at 3:06 PM

It's quite subjective indeed. I changed the wording in the description a bit to better reflect the original point of creating the mod - I believe the character should wear some clothing at 15C. However, when setting the in-game temperature hardiness to 15C, the clothes aren't sufficiently warm anymore to protect against colder winter temperatures (like -20C).

💬 NightLight0x07CC, Feb 21st at 11:54 PM

I wanted to comment because the person below said 15C was too soft a hardiness. I live in a desert and I consider room temperature to be 25C. I think 20C is cold and 15C is FREEZING, so I always end up setting my hardiness in the game to 15C.
On the flip side I think that 40-45C is reasonably tolerable daytime temperature and when I played Rust I was frustrated that characters start getting heat stroke at 35C xD

I would not survive long below 15C, my fingers and toes get cold at 20C while I am wearing clothes and gloves and start getting stiff any lower than that.

💬 YOHarbinger, Feb 20th at 3:58 AM

15C is absolutely too soft a hardiness, most temperate climates consider 15C to be room temperature and comfortable. 10C is around where we actually begin really suffering, around 50F or so, but a little bit of clothes is pretty well and comfortable. I'd personally have this balanced around a hardiness of 10C or 5C.

AHelplessBaby My bad you're right, I was trying to sift through all the hypothermia articles and still managed to copy the wrong thing lol.

💬 AHelplessBaby, Feb 19th at 9:00 PM

LunaGore That's Water temperature, not air temperature. Like for being in water. Also body temp is way, way higher than that. Hypothermia is defined as having a core body temp of lower than 95f.

💬 Finwe , Feb 19th at 8:56 PM

It's the minimum outside temperature you can survive without wearing any clothes. I think it's quite reasonable to say you wouldn't survive long in weather under 15C.

💬 LunaGore, Feb 19th at 6:06 PM

EndlessOats If we're talking body temp and not outside temp then 60F/15C is when the body starts to freeze.

> 60 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit can cause death in two to 40 hours. 50 to 60 degrees can cause death in one to six hours. 40 to 50 degrees can cause death in one to three hours. 32 to 40 degrees can cause death in 30 to 90 minutes.

💬 EndlessOats, Feb 19th at 5:42 PM

15C is 59 degrees F man. If you're freezing at 59 you need to eat some vegetables
