| Summary | 0013389: NPC characters never have any armor equipped | ||||
| Description | NPC characters across dozens of generated worlds never equip any armor items – metal or leather or otherwise. Characters not equipping armor include: - Soldiers, mercenaries and bandits in Adventure mode - Enemy invaders, visitors and caravan guards in Fortress mode In adventure mode human keeps, bandit camps and crypts have armor available as loot as intended. Dwarven Fortresses or various sewer locations I haven't confirmed. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Here's the specs of my AMD64 computer running Debian 13.2 natively: CPU 6-core Intel Core i5-10600K GPU NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 32 GiB Memory The other machine affected is the (officially unsupported) MacBook M3 Pro November 2023 36 Gb 1. Use a machine affected by the bug 2. Generate a world with any parameters 3. Start an adventurer in a human town 4. Rush to the keep and observe the warriors 5. Confirm that no-one has any armor on | ||||
| Additional Information | The bug is present across various devices and versions of the game I have attempted: - Native AMD64 Debian 13.2 Steam version, - Windows version run through Proton on native AMD64 Debian, - Steam Linux native version emulated on a virtualized ARM64 Debian 13.2, - Steam Windows version run through MacBook Pro M3 CrossOver On all of these platforms I have generated several worlds with default settings and custom world generation parameters and the issue is always there. A user on Reddit (No-Hovercraft7337) reports to me: "I also noticed that if you put the game on beta testing, for example, today the game is on version 53.08, I put the beta version of the game on 53.06 and the armor appeared." | ||||
