Hot Switch Wardrobe and the Fine Wardrobe

Postby Lunarius_Haberdash » Mon Oct 01, 2018 11:57 am

I'd really like to see a functionality added to the wardrobes that makes it switch your entire outfit out for what's in the selected slot, rather than needing to remove your gear into one slot and then put on the new clothes. I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but the ability to name each slot would also be convenient.

Would also like to see a higher cost wardrobe added that has six or more slots available.

Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

Having to undo the gear into an empty slot is actually a feature I don't want to go away. It might be an additional click (and the need to keep one slot free), but it makes sure that a set of clothing stays in the slot you initially put it (given you change back) instead of moving around in the wardrobes. The trick is to lock the equipment slots of stuff you want to stay on your character in the free wardrobe slot - also they're quite cheap to build, so it's no problem to put one next to a work area with the clothing for that particular job.

Bigger wardrobe is cool. but I agree with Granger on this one. I have the positions of each set memorized. Adding the switch feature would be more trouble for me as I would have too go to extra lengths to ensure the sets are in the same place. Especially so since everything is made from linen (maybe another issue here) and the sets are mostly visually indistinguishable.

I would like the ability to lock my cosmetic hat slot though.

I vaguely remember that this works, it just dosn't have an outline shown.
Try to lock-click at the location where the hat would be.

You are indeed correct sir. It does work, but without showing any lock or indication that it does. Thank you for the tip.

Perhaps a togglable option then? I for one would much prefer to hot-switch and then relabel the boxes. Also, for some jobs I do an (almost?) complete wardrobe change.
