lakhnish Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I think it'd be pretty cool if turfs could get skins to them. DST has a rather small palate of turfs compared to its SP counterpart, which has all of the best turfs. Skins for turfs could help with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-met Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 errr aren't turfs already skins? 95% of them have no perks and exist just to look different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirsg Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Nope. Different turfs can spawn different birds. Cobblestones affect speed. I didn't think I needed to say it. Scaled turf slows the spread of fire and is pretty ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we have, lets say, 20 turf it means we can have 40 kind if turf if each gets a skin If not, klei would need to add 20 new biomes to get the same amount which isnt possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Function is hardly the purpose of skins. I honestly thought that went without saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Moth Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I agree here, but my one problem is, reskinned turfs would have to have their own placement in the priority system, which would be a hassle just for a skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeerush Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 This is a pretty cool idea. I imagined it like, grass turf have small realistic grass popping out, 'cause .. well, grassy. Forest turf have that unrealistic red-spotted mushroom on it, like most forest have. Scaled flooring, like it get's more a little bit more "firey" .. glowing, thing.. 19 hours ago, Well-met said: you may have missed my point.

If you mention "skin" to BASE BUILDERS they will go insanely happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuartzBeam Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 As Blue Moth said, skinned turfs would basically have to be treated as separate from their unskinned versions for purposes of determining priority. And since we are talking about items that are primarily decorative to begin with, I don't see why they shouldn't just be normal craftable items instead of skins you have to pay or weave (and be online to use).
