Mud washes away
« on: May 12, 2009, 02:51:42 am »

Currently, when a floor tile is muddied underground, it will stay muddied forever, this applies not only to cavern floors, but also smooth and constructed floors and staircases. Hence, I propose that all muddied constructions and smoothed walls/floors be automatically cleansed every season, just like they are outside(but slower). Rough cavern floors will not dry up, due to their usefulness in underground farms.

if you smooth the floor again it becomes clean, mate.

anyway, all floors are useful when they are muddy, its the only way to make farms on rock.

The suggestion would allow you to clean up things that get muddy unintentionally, though, like if you accidentally pour water down your staircase and don't like the brown.

There are plans for needing re-irrigation for farming anyway; this pretty much how that would be solved, just like 2D DF.
