Carpet is a type of flooring made with cloth. Carpet has 100% walk speed and 2 beauty each, meaning it can cause a "pleasant environment" happy thought in sufficient amounts. They are also flammable and have a cleaning time of 200%.
They require Carpet making to have been researched in order to be available. Colors can be be selected from a menu.
When carpet burns it leaves burned carpet behind.
Acquisition
Carpets can be crafted once the carpet making research project has been completed. Each requires 7 Cloth and 800 ticks (13.33 secs) of work modified by the general labor speed of the crafter. Color is chosen when the blueprint is laid, and incurs no additional cost[verify].
Analysis
With a Beauty of 2, carpets can quickly upgrade a "mediocre" room to an "impressive" one, perfect for those troublesome greedy colonists.
Carpet can be particularly useful in the desert where wood is hard to come by or when you might not want to use up all your precious metals. Starting a cloth farm is pretty easy, especially if you have hydroponics researched, and if you don't have the time to spare or the skill to smooth floors, it's a nice substitute. Players also use this to color code rooms, for their own benefit.
It is important to consider the cleaning time of 200%, which doubles the time needed to clean it.
