Apparel layers

Each item of apparel or utility gear is worn on a specific location of a 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. A layer basically says how far away from the body a piece of gear is worn.

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.

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.

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.
