Ice Rink would work... but the ice might crack even if it is a rink a skating rink might be better

Re: What are you doing for the flooring?

We got all of the flooring for free but we have to give it back when we are done.

Some hockey rinks use this same material.

Re: What are you doing for the flooring?

As noted in the January 6 update to Bill's Blog, a standard linoleum tile floor is a very good approximation of the "Regolith" flooring material. During development, we found that a waxed floor game performance characteristics that were within about 5% of the official material. That seems to be good enough for most development efforts, and should make for a very reasonable alternative for teams that don't want to purchase enough of the plastic material for an entire floor.

Re: What are you doing for the flooring?

An idea we had was to go to lowes, home depot, or whatever and then contact other local teams in the area and build a collective practice field. With four or five teams sharing the cost, it will probably be easier. Still waiting for the other teams to reply to us, though.
