RimWorld Odyssey Armor Stands Guide
Written by Andrew Hammel
Armor stands in RimWorld: Odyssey let you store a full outfit and swap it instantly (also known as Outfit Stands). You can use them for space suits, raid armor, or cold-weather gear. Pawns will not use them on their own, but with a few simple steps, they become one of the best tools for managing outfits quickly.
Here’s how armor stands work and how to use them correctly.
What Armor Stands Do
Armor stands store one full outfit in one place.
They’re good for swapping into EVA suits, marine armor, or anything else you need in a hurry. You can set them up anywhere, but they’re most useful near airlocks, turrets, or ship exits.
How to Load Gear onto an Armor Stand
Pawns won’t haul clothes to an armor stand automatically.
To put armor on the stand:
Select a pawn
Right-click a piece of armor or clothing
Choose “Force target to wear”
Click the armor stand
This moves the gear onto the stand and locks it there.
How to Use an Armor Stand to Swap Outfits
Once the gear is stored, you can have a pawn swap into it.
Select a pawn
Right-click the armor stand
Choose “Swap outfit”
The pawn will wear everything from the stand. Their old gear is dropped on the ground or into a nearby stockpile.
Best Uses for Armor Stands
Store space suits next to your ship door
Keep combat kits in turret halls
Prepare cold-weather outfits for ice biomes
Make heat gear for lava fields or glow forests
Hold noble outfits for roleplay or quests
You can also lock an armor stand so other pawns don’t change the gear by accident.
Final Blurb
Armor stands are a small but powerful tool in RimWorld: Odyssey. They take a minute to set up, but they save time during raids, spacewalks, and emergencies.
Be sure to remember to load them manually. Once you do, swapping gear becomes fast, easy, and reliable.
