glenalec Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I'm thinking it would be nice if items made from the 4 primary metals looked a little differently, if only so I can see at a glance what things I might upgrade for decor bonuses. Possibly just by tinting them, rather than generating new artwork: Iron/ore: No tint (Tint Grey) Copper/ore: Tint orange Gold/amalgam: Tint yellow Tungsten/Wolframite: Tint white Probably also same for stone-constructed tiles and entities too (I'll leave an an exercise for others what tint-colours might be appropriate for that long list ).

Kasuha Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 There's a mod for it I believe. I'd be happy if buildings advertised their building material in the tooltip. I don't need them to look differently but making sure I did not leave a sandstone tile in an abyssalite wall is painful.

glenalec Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Actually, one artwork request ... Could Abysalite tiles be based on a 1/4 scale version of the native Abysalite texture! I love Abysalite!! (I like end-walls of habitat rooms in it - presently I cheat it in ) Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/87191-differentiating-constructed-materials/#findComment-1000341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
