You just use a sewing kit or bone needle (and have leather patches, rags or whatever you need) and then select the item. It should eventually adjust it to fit you.
However…
I found a raincoat that fit me, but it was basically completely destroyed.
Why can’t I adjust my current raincoat to fit me? It complains that it’s not made of leather cotton etc.
I’m carrying plastic chunks.
WAIT.
I’m being a dumbass. I need to use the soldering iron.

Ok thank you now what about the Z master.
Yep, you can also use it to repair and reinforce eyewear, filter masks, military backpacks, kevlar vests etc.
And yet I still cannot seem to make my arm guards (hard arm guards) or “light gloves” fit any better. I just get a message saying they’re already reinforced.
Oh and I know nothing about the zombie master. As far as I know if you butcher a zombie it can’t rise again in any way. As long as you’re playing with static zombie spawn.
Not all items can have their encumbrance upgraded. Also, it’s always done before reinforcement, so once an item is reinforced, you know it’s pointless to try.
Did you sew the light gloves yourself? Any item you make is already fitted to you.
And hard arm guards probably can’t be re-fitted.
Nah, didn’t make them myself.
Well, that’s annoying then… They aren’t much use if they make combat impractical. Although it’s not so bad if I take off the hoodie.
I’m currently running around a town with a zweihander, covered in fitted armour, doing my best impression of the Kurgan and butchering everything that lives. I love this thing.
Also, I just got my hands on a vacuum sealer. Just how well does meat last when vacuum packed?
DG123: Craft yourself metal arm guards, those are the only ones worth the encumbrance.
What stats does a zweihander have? I haven’t found one yet.
Forever, as far as I can tell (It’s still ok after more than half a year).
That is what I wanted to hear. I’ve been stockpiling dead spiders in my house…
As for the zweihander,
volume 20, Weight 3.2, Bash 15, Cut 40, +1 to hit.
Moves per attack 197
and it has a bunch of special effects:
It tends to one hit kill zombies.
That’s not bad at all. (katana still seems better to me though)
But does the Katana hit multiple targets?
No, but it’s parry ability blocks like crazy. I found it to be incredibly OP once you get your skill high enough, since most of attacks gets stopped before even touching my armor. It happened to me more than once while wielding it, that I started with some crafting or something and when I finished, there was a zombie next to me and more than a dozen of blocked attacks in my log. The rapid attack also allows it to strike twice as fast, so once I realized I basically never get hit by standard damage and can safely kill even a brute without using terrain, I wouldn’t even bother to carry encumbering armor when looting cities etc.
i tried using a sledge hammer for a while, but I tend to avoid getting surrounded anyway, so I couldn’t really make a use of that multiple targets ability.
Nice. I’ll certainly keep an eye out for katanas then.
Speaking of weapons, I just found that I could craft a coilgun…
But it looks awful. Is it actually worth making? The nail rifle was terrible and the coilgun doesn’t seem much better really.

It’s pretty good. shame that you need a powered UPS though. thing is, ammo is plentiful. I’d just stick with the nail rifle until you get the skill up.
I have decent weapon skill already since I’m using guns. The thing is the range on the coilgun looks to be stupidly short. Am I reading it wrong?
More pressing issue:
I’ve found an RV and I’m trying to get it repaired. It has 17 inch wide wheels but… only seems to have two of them. It says that this is “enough”. I wanted to add more so it wasn’t breaking the laws of physics, but it seems I can’t. What’s going on?
It has wheels at the front two corners and nothing at the back. I have some 36 inch wide wheels to add. I can only add them if I build extensions onto the frame, apparently. ???!
There is a bug right now where sometimes wheels can’t be replaces if stuff is installed on top of them.
I guess that must be the reason then. So… what would I need to remove? Or should I build an extra row of frame on the back of the RV and put them on that? I’m not sure how the vehicle building system works. Do I need to find a frame item for each square of frame, or what? I’m guessing that is the case so I just need to cut bits off other cars.
But aren’t there lots of different shapes of frame? What are those for? And how exactly do you need to mount a wheel on a vehicle?
Re Master zed: that goes around upgrading generi-Zeds to specials. Good idea to kill and butcher it.
It’s not a though, so killing it doesn’t markedly affect the total population.
Been reading the wiki, and maybe found some hilarity.
If I can wear unlimited bionics would it be correct to say I can wear several integrated storage bionics? Because that seems silly, I only have so much chest. But hilariously viable if I can.
Sorry, noob question I know.

I think it would tell you you already have that bionic.
