Is there any difference other than mats and looks of the floors that wold makes the colonist like them?
or would it be no different than having a dirt floor?
Different types of terrain (ground, floors, the stuff on the bottom) can have move speed penalties. Any kind of floor you can build (including smooth stone) won't have any, rock is a little slower to walk on, soil a little slower than that, so using floors in your base will speed up walking a little. If you mouse over a square, you can see what the walk speed is.
Plants can't grow on floors, and terrain can't burn (even wood floors) so they can protect buildings and things from nearby plant fires (if there's a layer of floor two squares thick, fires won't jump over). And in the tropical rainforest where tall grass grows everywhere and is slow to walk through, building a path across the map with some floor can help you move across the map much faster. It'll also help the enemies move to your base faster, but you can use this to your advantage since you know just what direction the enemy will be coming from (your path).
Floors also have a beauty modifier, whereas concrete has negatives, carpet/smooth stone have positives.
from whats in the game now
they vary in beauty
and some reduce speed
from an engine perspective,
the can also increase speed
as far as i know flammability isn't implemented from a engine perspective yet
Isn't this offtopic for the offtopic forum? :o
