Rugs / Carpet
« on: February 10, 2008, 03:37:00 pm »

It would be nice if we could weave carpets and rugs as simple "transparent" furniture. They don't occupy space but they cover the floor and provide another medium for artistic images. They can be embellished with gold or jewels and so on.

Additionally, if we get rid of the [NOSKIN] tag and simply make a [LEATHER:<name>] token we can give skins with appropriate names and we can then make rugs out of them. So say a giant panther has the [LEATHER:giant panther fur] you can make a giant panther fur rug to go inside your barracks.

Well, the idea being that carp "leather" would read [LEATHER:carp scale] so you'd end up with "carp scale armor" instead of "carp leather armor"

You could go various directions too: giant eagle feather bracelets or earrings, fire snake skin boots, troglodyte hide buckler, dragon scale armor, and so on. Obviously the "leather" will need a density and hardness setting for armor and weight.

Seconding this (also tapestries) because what with the bug making it pointless to make clothing and all I always wind up with more cloth than I know what to do with.

Necroing this thread as I had ideas relevant to it.

In addition to the ability to create tapestries and carpets, the ability to create rooftops (for tents/etc.) or even walls would be most appreciated. Such walls would be capable of moving across the wind, allowing for the creation of sails.
