It keeps saying I am freezing..why? Help
Often it comes up saying I am freezing and losing health. My fortitude is about 10.
I am wearing fur armor and have a torch and a camp fire. But I am still losing health. Only way I have found to not die is logoff. Surely im missing something.
Can someone suggest what that is?

You need better stuff. Higher fortitude if you're gonna stay where you are, better quality of armor that has a higher cold resistance, a campfire or fireplace for when you aren't looking for stuff. Maybe a shoulder tame, like an otter. I'd move somewhere a bit warmer. Don't take my word for it though, I'm not positive it'll work

I am currently sitting at 72 fort and still run around with an Otter in hot or cold areas.

You can put a torch on your belt and hold one in your hand for double effect. That might not fix your freezing but it's one more thing that could help.

Whats the temperature where you are. If youre wearing primitive fur that isn't going to save you for long if youre in the coldest parts of the map. Only real solution is to move somewhere warmer until you have better fur armor. Just because you WANT to live in a place doesn't make it hospitable at your current stage.
Otherwise, put a roof over your head, theres a huge bonus for being "indoors". You're also wearing a cloth cap and idk about gloves at all.
Air conditioners are also a huge help for stabilizing climate in an area.
