Do you have to spread the cloth before setting up the tent?
Not necessarily, but the first paved mat would help more moisture, and the bottom of the tent is not easy to be something sharp break ground, so I is the first floor pad.
The cloth is mainly used to protect the tent ledger, because camping place cannot all be clean neatly, the tent was easier to record ground pebbles like cut, but also can make the record shop not so dirty, so it is best to shop or cloth, tents are bought, cloth not much money to spend, and cloth have moistureproof effect, but if it is to limit the need to reduce weight, without it anyway..
It is not necessary, nor can it be paved
It's not necessary, but it's best to put it on.1. it can damp proof.2. can protect the tent floor, not being broken or cut. Extend tent life.
