Cosmetics

Cosmetics allow player to customize their appearance without affecting gameplay using various hats, shirts, pants equipped in the cosmetic armor slot, and dyes for both weapons and armor.

Cosmetic Armor
Main Page: Cosmetic Armor Cosmetic Armor pieces are designed to be equipped in cosmetic armor slots and commonly don't offer significant stat boosts. They can be equipped in the cosmetic slot next to the armor slot in the inventory window, allowing for different styles without requiring currently equipped armor to be removed. Any wearable armor can be used in the cosmetic slot, provided it's the appropriate type (head, chest, legs, or back). All cosmetic armor can be collected and displayed on a mannequin.

Dye
Main Page: Dye Dyeing is the process of recoloring armor using dyes. All dyes are craftable at the Spinning Wheel as well as its subsequent upgrades and can be removed using a Dye Remover, which will restore the armor to its default coloring. To use dye pick it up and right-click on the item. If the item is dyeable it will change colour appropriately, both on the inventory icon and in game.

Frackin' Universe adds a wildly extensive selection of dyes made from various materials including refined ores, timber, graphene and alien compound. As of now, there are around 40 new dyes in addition to ones in the base game.
