[Con] Footmen don't equip weapons & armor

Support Previous Build Reports

Can’t replicate the action to re-equip, must of been a one-off. Tried a single stockpile and did not work, as soon as they drop off an item error message so I am assuming its down to an issue when a footman triggers an upgrade your equipment command. Also I am having an issue with workers upgrading to improved uniforms from the tailor.

I have been getting the same error code with the upgraded worker clothes.

This happens quite often now once every 2? new maps any storage area containing new items either clothes upgraded worker or shields (any) and even the Bronze mace will cause it to happen Hearthlings will put items into the storage area but then it seems to stay there this error will also cause the game to ctd if enough of them appear

Doh. This is due to some of the dormant code for shops. A fix is on the way in the unstable branch…

I hope this fix comes fast. I keep building new Areas and I every time I go to make an upgrade for the hearthlings I get that silly error as soon as the item is placed in the stockpile

Hi, I noticed that when a footman is downed by an enemy all their gear is dropped on the ground. After they are rescued and recuperate they return to duty but won’t re-equip any of their gear. None of the workers will move the gear to empty stockpiles either. I’ve tried placing stockpiles under the stuff but nothing will get my hearthlings to move them (at this point i just want to get rid of the stuff because I’ve already made better equipment).

use the loottool to get the hearthlings go and collect the items.

omg THANK YOU :joy: I can’t believe I didn’t think of that… I can finally clean up all the stone maces and leather armor lying around my town!

Welcome to the forum, @Revjak_Revjourin. :slightly_smiling_face:

Could you please upload your savefile so that devs can take a look at it?

  1. Find the save folder for the saves you wish to upload. By default, they are located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stonehearth\saved_games (assuming a default Steam install).
  2. Zip the folder.
  3. Right click the folder (should be a long set of numbers).
  4. Left click on Send to in the menu that appears.
  5. Left click on `Compressed (Zipped) folder).
  6. (Optional) Rename the folder to something different than the default set of numbers.
  7. Upload the save.
  8. If the zip is less than 10 MB, you can upload it directly. Either use the upload button or drag and drop it into the compose window,
  9. If larger than 10 MB, upload it to a cloud storage site like Dropbox, Google Drive, File Dropper, etc. and post the sharing link here.

Make sure the equipment you mention is in a storage, and that its player_id is correct (if you hover over it and it’s red, drag the loot tool over it so that your town claims it). Also make sure your footmen can reach it and have the required level.
