Is the malus increasing? If it is, then you’re still getting wet. The other way to test what’s happening, as has been suggested, is to activate a towel to dry yourself of (removing the malus) and then seeing if it comes back.

There’s a chance you might be in a damaged tent.

Always gotta bring a towel with you, until your gear is all waterproof at least… I usually still carry one after that, but have been leaving it in the truck just because I don’t seem to ever need it with the gear I’m wearing. It’s good for if you get slime or whatever on you too.

I bring 2 with me early game, and keep 4 in my car.

Easy to craft, easy to drop and replace.

Carry a folded plastic bag and a few towels everywhere.

P:
The list of crap I always carry is actually kind of long.

• Skittles for days: aspirin, painkillers, first aid, bandages, eye drops, multivitamins, adrenaline, Dr Stem, cocaine
• 1 molotov and 1 smoke bomb, optional manhacks
• 2 weapons
• some pebbles and a sling
• folded plastic bag
• poncho or umbrella or towels
• rubber hose
• lighter
• thread or splintered wood

Folded plastic bag?

[pisskop]

unfold it for instant storage when raiding.

use a rucksack or molle pack for more storage potential at the cost of higher encumbrance and less prewearing space
