The Yellow Carpet is a lemon-yellow building-block with the texture of a rough cloth.
It has the size of a full block, not just a thin flat cloth.
It can be crafted in your Crafting Menu (default key "Q") or at Crafting Tables (that still exist) in worlds created before R22 on September 16th 2015, but only after the recipe has been unlocked upon taking Shredded Leaves for the first time (made from any kind of tree-leaves in a Processor).
To craft 8 (blocks of) Yellow Carpets, you'll need (as of R27 in January 2016):
- 1 Yellow Pigment made of Yellow Flowers from Cragwood-trees in a Processor or found in Obsidian Treasure Chests
- 4 Stone Rods made of Stone, Limestone or Bedrock in a Processor or found in Stone Treasure Chests
- 2 (blocks of) Shredded Leaves made from tree-leaves in a Processor
Attention: Yellow Carpets are flammable! When placing Yellow Carpets into hot environments close to (or especially directly above) torches or fiery blocks (like Hardened Lava), Yellow Carpets can easily start to burn. Liquid Lava or Fire Bombs will immediately set them on fire.
If Yellow Carpets start burning, also other flammable blocks nearby can catch fire, and this way a whole wooden house or forest (especially Wildwood, Parchwood and Shorewood) can burn down in hot biomes like Jungles, Savannahs, Shores or on the Lava layer. Fire cannot be extinguished currently (as of R27 in January 2016), it can only be stopped from spreading by creating forest aisles/swaths wide enough so the flames cannot leap over.
