Update July 16th, 2017: Added 15 more colors, see images above. This will not break your saves, you will however need to go into your stockpile(s) and checkmark the new colors.

This mod adds 30 different area rug models to the game from tiny 1×1 doormats to huge 7×7 room filling monstrosities. They come in circle, square, rectangle, and also one wide runners for hallways. Unlock by researching carpets.
There are two new crafting benches: the dye barrel that takes default cloth and changes its color, and the rug crafting table that takes that colored cloth (or regular cloth, devilstrand, hyperweave, or wools) and makes them into the rugs.
A cool side effect of this mod is that the new colors of cloth can be used to craft regular clothing so now you don’t have to be content with everyone wearing light grey, if you want your colony to wear all purple you can do that! Visitors and raiders will also show up in the newly colored clothing and you’ll be able to buy it from traders.
Now the rugs.. they use artistic ability and have a quality rating, the higher the quality the more beauty it has. The larger the rug the more beauty it has. (I didn’t want to punish people for wanting to use one big rug instead of 6 little ones in a room) They can be picked up and put back down and sold to traders if desired. It is possible to get some >very< pretty rugs if you have a colonist with high artistic skill, and you can have a very beautiful base.. but keep in mind that the value of the rug will also be high and you will pay for all that beauty in more dangerous raids.
Compatibility: Not compatable with Dye Vat by Sam – https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=740002420 they eat each other’s cloth. This one has almost all those colors plus some so if you want the rugs too only use this one.
Doesn’t conflict with other mods that add colored cloth via XML, but you will probably get two dyed cloth tabs in your inventory list. Mods that add crafted things from default cloth also include the the colored cloth, you might have to have this mod first in your load order – this has not been tested though. Confirned for use with Stuffed Floors, it will still need default cloth to make the carpeted flooring (you can bleach colored cloth back to default at the dye barrel) but they don’t cause any issues being installed together. Also confirmed full compatability with mods that add new clothing types.
Known issues: You can place the rugs under walls or even stack them on top of each other. I’m just happy they sit nicely under furniture so not worrying about this. Bleached cloth sprites stay colored until stacked with other cloth, doesn’t adversely effect usage, just appearance.
There are extra textures in the folder, a set with almost no edge shadowing and a set with heavy shadowing. Just switch them out if you prefer.
All graphics and some coding by AElflaed (Fisty), extra coding and testing by Darc Clan.
This mod MAY be included in mod packs, altered or unaltered, please give us (Fisty and Darc) credit somewhere if you do so.
(It’s just begging to be worked in with Superior Crafting and mods that add more plants to actually make the dyes)
