UTC-10 Posted October 19 Posted October 19 A small shop with sewing machine, bolts of cloth, packs of needles, and odds and ends of cured leather. During the aurora, the sewing machines would allow economical repair of anything short of completely ruined i.e. 1% or better condition. In one [successful] action the clothing item is repaired to 100%. The material source would be a bolt of cloth (equivalent to 1 to 20 cloth which decrements with each repair attempt) and the shop may have 1 to 3 bolts of cloth on hand (which can be actually found and brought to the shop) that have to be loaded into the sewing machine. One at a time. The bolt of cloth can be harvested for 75% of the cloth it contains and it cannot be created from individual pieces of cloth (so don't harvest it if you don't have to). The chance of a successful repair of anything can be a fixed percentage (for simplicity) or based on Mending skill with maybe a maximum success rate (given the character is operating a machine and not hand sewing something). The sewing maching might be subject to condition loss from use but can be repaired with scrap metal and a toolkit. An option would require lamp oil in a lubricating function. Now for the needles. They are needed for each attempt to repair clothing. The pack of needles is loaded into the sewing machine. Each attempt expends one needle. An unused/intact pack of needles can be harvested and converted into a sewing kit. The reverse is not possible. Each pack contains 5 needles. The shop may have 1 to 5 packs of needles. Like cloth packs of needles can be found and brought to the shop. The shop would have 1 to 5 pieces of cured leather onhand. This assumes that anything that can be repaired with cloth and/or cured leather can be repaired on the shop equipment. Animal-hide clothing that needs animal hides and/or guts cannot be, but that would be subject to the implementation. This facility is the equivalent to the milling machine but would be expected to be in its own discrete location. Naturally, unlikely to be implemented any time soon. 🚧 1 2
