Can colonists auto change clothes when worn below 50% instead of complaining?

I have learnt that people will complain when anything they wear is below 50% and then complain more and decrease mood as clothes get worse.
So far I've taken care of it manually and clicked on each person, tell them to drop the worn item, and then I start crafting a new one which they will auto find once it's complete.
I haven't kept a stock of clothes in advance, since crafting takes long, but I was thinking that if I had a stock of new clothes, would they take care of this on their own so that I can forget about it, and would they in this case never get the -3 debuff for worn clothes?
Best Answer
I tried this today and can confirm that it works. If there are available clothes of better quality in a stockpile, the person will find them and change his clothes.

How do you get the colonists to change clothes in Rimworld?
In this post you will find out exactly how quality and comfort interact with each other. To completely avoid the debuff on ratty apparel, you just have to set the top controller to 51% -100% hit points. With this, the colonists automatically replace clothing that falls below 51% hit points.How can we stop colonists from wearing tattered clothes?
