Suggestion - Carpets

Postby cjhendoop » Fri Oct 11, 2013 7:34 pm

I have an idea for a new type of flooring - Carpet(s) That could come in a ton of colours and when you clicked carpet there would be some sort of colour wheel or something

Maybe it could also provide comfort need

That was complete gibberish. Really, I don't think that title was appropriate. Maybe if you renamed it to something like "[Suggestion] Multicolored Carpets", then maybe I would have actually read your post.

Gameplay wise, I don't really see the point of carpet.
Surely the current tile selection is good enough.

I am all for more bling. It is purely aesthetic, and has nothing to do with gameplay. Though you could make it a slow surface, which would have an effect on the game (minor as it is).

I suppose it could improve the prisoners environment need rate of going down at the cost of slower movement on the tiles.

I mentioned it in his post on the General forum, before he posted here. There is one relevant thread from last year that can be found by searching. It probably would have been better to bump that, but it was never very active, and I had already made one off-topic reply to the original poster to get him to post in the dev forum. It didn't seem necessary to repeat myself, since he appeared to be trying to do the right thing.

By the way, for someone who complains about how hostile and unfriendly the forums are, and how everything is "going to shit," you loose a lot of credibility when you go out of your way to be hostile and unfriendly.

Not trying to be hostile.Just trying out some humor which I know failed now :(.
Edit----
I don't mean to be hostile, sorry, I guess it turns into a habit after you start living in china for a while.

I've actually hoped for carpets so I'm all for this. I really like the idea with the color wheel.

Prisoners could use these to dump some types of contraband as well.
You go through a metal detector and it goes "BEEP" you could maybe get far enough away to drop the spoon in your pocket and kick it under the rug to hopefully retrieve later when the guards aren't looking.
On the positive side carpets are more comfortable than metal / concrete floors so a bit more enjoyable for the prisoners.

Then we can get Roomba vacuums!

But then we'll also need to add cats to ride on them...
