Tired of spending all day, every day running around collecting just the right color of tile for your spiffy new base? Introducing Improvised Flooring! Put away your shoes, grab a hammer and lets get crafting.

Why spend all day searching when you can spend all afternoon crafting! Learn to make wood flooring, carpeting, kitchen tiles and even the elusive industrial floor designs and more.

Improvised Flooring adds over 100 crafting recipes to the game to allow you to craft your own floor tiles from reasonable resource requirements. Wooden Floors, Carpets and Metal Tiles are available to everyone with the appropriate skill set. Special floors like Plaster Tiles, Branded variations, Industrial flooring, Roadways and Sidewalks require the discovery of a specialized magazine.

Optional mod

Enable the included optional mode "ImprovisedFlooringPlus" to expand your Paint, Plaster and Concrete uses to 10 items per bucket instead of the default 5 and 4. Works well with Improvised Paint

Regarding Duplicates

There are a few floor tiles that have different names but the same texture. This is intentional and not a bug. The Project Zomboid developers have reused textures a couple times while giving them unique names and files. I've included them in the mod in case these textures change in the future.

An example of this would be "White Mall Tiles" and "White Tiles". They are visually identical but come from two different textures in the game files.

Improvised flooring is open-source and published on Github Repackage, redistribute, recode, whatever, I don't care, do as you please. Credit would be appreciated.
