Rough Stone?

[TheNinthAlly]

How do I make stone floors rough? I made a small patch for the purpose of quickly leveling up the construction skill, but it seems to already be smooth. I’ve tried to smooth it but it says I need to designate rough floor first, so I’m assuming the floor needs to be roughened. How can I do this?

rough stone is normal/untouched stone floor
you can only smooth it, and you can try to smooth "rough" stone walls too, you will see the difference

I literally just built a limestone floor and I can’t smooth it however.

You can only smooth natural rough stone.

When you built a floor, you built either a "Tile floor" or a "flagstone floor" Those are not something you can smooth.

What do you mean? You can definitely smooth floors. Can I get an elaboration?

The 'smooth floor' tool only works with natural stone floors in the unmodded game as far as I know. The only stone floors you can make in the unmodded game are flagstone and tile - neither of which can be smoothed.

Thanks for the help.

one thing that helps my builder gain more exp as the colony matures, is to tile every possible room and walk way.

if you really need to, you can even undo and tile with some other tiles, but i often find that just keeping the base going with all the building projects, leads into high construction skill without artificially needing to do something like rebuilding tiles in the same places.

You can also just order them to smooth a large section of a natural rock face.
