Armor is a type of gear that offers superior protection to clothing, and can typically be worn on top of a it, too. Armor tends to carry heavier movement speed penalties than clothing.

Armor

A general list of armor in the game as of Alpha 6:

  • Note: Some articles of armor have randomized colors. Listed below are example colors.

Armor Vest

ArmorVest.png A basic plate, strapped to a colonist's or raider's chest to protect their torso from gunshots and some other injuries.

Kevlar Helmet

KevlarHelmet.png Companion to the Armor Vest, protects your head.

M1 Helmet

M1Helmet.png Slightly better than the Kevlar Helmet against gunshots, but trades off some other resistances for it. Still a worthy alternative.

Powered Armor Helmet

PoweredArmorHelmet.png Helmet for the Powered Armor. Advanced, and is currently the only helmet that covers the entire face.

Powered Armor

PoweredArmor.png Durable but heavy armor. Not advised for 24/7 wearing on colonists due to the movement speed penalty.

Also currently the only piece of gear that covers the arms.

Clothing Layers

Each item of apparel or utility gear is worn on a specific location of the wearer's body. That location is determined by two things:

  1. The body part groups it covers.
  2. The layer or layers it occupies.

Apparel combinations are limited by layer and coverage - an item cannot be worn with another item that covers the same body parts and on the same layer. Thus, items covering the same parts but on different layers are compatible, as are items on the same layer but with no overlap in coverage. Items that cover multiple layers conflict with items on all layers.

Layers are also used to determine the order in which armor calculations are performed, with the outermost layer's armor applying first, and progressing through the layers until the attack is stopped or there are no more layers.

The layers, from innermost to outermost, are:

  • Skin: The closest layer to the body, and mostly used for apparel below the head.
  • Middle: The second closest layer to the body, and mostly used for apparel below the head.
  • Outer: The third layer from the body, and mostly used for apparel below the head. Note that it will be displayed on the pawn's sprite above all other layers, even though it is considered below the following layers for actual mechanical effects.
  • Belt: Technically the fourth layer. A distinct layer for utility items to allow them to be worn alongside any other apparel but not with each other.
  • Headgear: The fifth layer, and used for headwear. There are several items that cover body parts typically covered by the other layers however, in which case this will be above them.
  • Eyes: The outermost layer. A distinct layer only used for the blindfoldContent added by the Ideology DLC to allow it to be worn alongside headwear.

Which body parts currently have items that occupy each of the layers is shown in the table on the below; layers and body parts which are not currently used by gear were omitted. As such, the hands and feet which are not covered by any apparel or any layer, are omitted.

  • Body Part Group Coverage Skin Middle Outer Headgear Eyes Belt Image
    Full Head Head, Ears, Nose, Jaw, Eyes × Human Body Areas Located.png
    Upper Head Head, Ears ×
    Eyes Eyes ×
    Shoulders Left & Right Shoulders × × ×
    Arms Left & Right Arm × × ×
    Torso Torso × × ×
    Waist Waist ×
    Neck Neck × × × ×
    Legs Left & Right Leg × × ×
  • Examples

    • You can't wear pants as well as tribalwear, since both cover the "skin" layer and cover the legs.
    • You can wear pants and a button-down shirt, since while they both use the "skin" layer they don't cover the same parts.
    • You can wear pants and a duster, since while they both cover the legs pants use the "skin" layer while a duster uses the "outer" layer.
