Decals and paint, dyes maker, painting building, colorizing structures
If it's possible... Player-placed decals on the walls or rocks would make the game even more awesome, A paint-production facilty producing paint form resin and other stuff (berries for blue, carrots for orange e.t.c) would be also a good thing.

I came here to say just this. Along with decals and colour, also consider different texture types mayhaps? -

FluddyMaybe also be able to use paint to paint fences, buildings and so forth. Imagine beeing able to paint a whole city pink! It was maybe possible to combine flowers and the paint-idea: Use flowers as decoration or make flower farms to make paint from them. Maybe in combination with pine resin in a factory? I would like it, if it was an early mid-game option.

BF1230It's almost a year old, but upvoting. Painted fences, faction vests with colors. Would be sweet.

tweek MergedI thought it could be nice to have varying colors.
three central points: the paint factory, the painter's houses, and the colors!
At the factory, we make paint, for example, purple, made from berries... for example... orange: carrots... we can imagine a lot of things.
painter's houses: they will be the ones responsible for painting the buildings.
Then, your choice! depending on what seems possible to the developers... we could paint, facade by facade, a different color (including the roofs) or the entire building... roads! or mayber : floors! (only unnatural ^^)
we could have lots, like rainbow, blue dotted with white flashes... decals in short.
finally and went further than imaginable...
a “Paint” mode like the good old paint windows, in which we could create our own facades! or complete set of building colors ^^ ....
but here I'm going really far ^^ -

Skeletron01maybe have a late game building that allows you to make dyes. Blueberries for blue, dandelions for yellow. leaves for green (add a new building that allows you to collect leaves from trees, whether they be saplings or fully grown I am unsure. These leaves could also be used to make roofs, hedges, etc.) Add some other types of berries (strawberries or raspberries for red. Blackberries for purple or black. These berries could also be used in other recipes such as berry pie, etc.) carrots for orange and then the other colours could be made by mixing various amounts of red, yellow and blue. Storage would be an issue if you wanted to store each dye as a separate colour this would require a lot of buildings. Maybe you can only make red, yellow and blue dye or dye can share a warehouse, but it still keeps track of how many of each colour you have. Along with the dye maker you could add another job that employs someone to paint the various structures. P.S. The detailer could use dye instead.

Nick Zarske MergedBe able to customize the colors of our buildings and beavers in each district. Whatever color we want, or color combination. This would be sweet. :)

Tweek Del Taw MergedHello everyone!
The idea is very simple!
Just like for our beaver tails: a paint shop, but this time for just about everything! (;
-The color of the roads... (I'm thinking especially of the "safety bars" / raised paths)
-the barriers
-The color of the facades, the roofs!
In short: just about everything, actually! ^^
There you go -

RD MergedAs the game is a bit limited in terms of looks (few if any variations on e.g. roofs and decor), which can lead to a feeling of "sameness" in big bases and across different maps
It would be good to at least get some simple options for recoloring buildings, roofs and/or monuments to create more unique and visually distinct bases/districts
As others have suggested, this could also be combined with a dye maker production facility, e.g. using water/badwater + blueberries/dandelion/chestnuts for making primary colors (blue, yellow/green, red respectively) that are used to create the different colors, depending on the amount of complexity desired
(these could also be used for other things, e.g. ink for book production, painting kit consumables, paintings decor, decals, etc.)
Personally I would much prefer a full-on color wheel or chromatic/RGB sliders for more finesse and nuance - but even adding a handful of stock options would be a welcome improvement
keep up the good work, guy -

Peter MergedNow that the mechanics of the game are so solid I really feel that the time has come for beefing up aesthetics and possibilities for builders. I've already posted elsewhere about modular housing which would be a massive win for me, but so would surface painting. Please can we have the ability to "paint" buildings? Actually, being able to make a new resource 'paint' would be so cool but anyway, some way of distinguishing buildings, giving real character to living areas etc would be amazing.
