ZED ZONE: NPC Companions - How to Cure Hypothermia?
Short answer
Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Give the NPC medicine and let them swap to more weather-appropriate clothing.
The problem
I've tried locking them in a small house with a campfire burning, giving them canned food and water, giving them bandages to heal. However, they still show as 'wet clothes' and hypothermia despite standing by the fire for some time. Can the fire 'dry' them off over time and counteract the hypothermia or do I need to lock them in there while I find them new clothes to wear?
What players suggest
I'll give that a try next time, thanks! Also, the recent update may have fixed it too (npcs will now use medicine you give them and swap to more weather-appropriate clothing)
Did this work for you?
