Talk:Materials

= Regarding My Recent Edit = I see that some parts of my recent edit have been deleted, which resulted in the page looking rather broken. I am unsure if the user who did this is a vandal or a legitimate contributor, so I won't undo the damages just yet. Instead, I'll go ahead and explain my reasoning behind the changes that I made. I do not quite understand why someone undid my edits, so I am posting this here in the hopes that the user will explain his or herself.--Icerios (talk) 21:13, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
 * 1) Texture descriptions.  I added basic descriptions (e.g. concrete, grass, sand, etc.) in the texture columns of the material tables.  I did this with the assumption that the empty texture columns were meant to give the name of the material's texture.  But apparently that column was intended to be left blank...?
 * 2) New sections.  Originally, the description incorrectly asserted that the materials are separated into two categories: colors and materials.  The page was organized in that fashion.  I went ahead and broke the "materials" category down into more, easily-distinguishable categories: premium texture, physics, effects, destructible, and glowing.  I think the meaning of each category is pretty self-explanatory.  Also, since some materials include properties of multiple categories, some materials show up in multiple categories.  That's just the nature of categories.
 * 3) New columns.  I added additional columns to certain tables.  I added a "physics" column for the physics materials in order to specify the materials' special physics; I added a "hardness" column for the destructible materials in order to rate the materials' resistance to destruction; and I added an "effects" column for the effects materials in order to specify the special effects that the materials apply to the player.
 * 4) Altered links.  Many of the links given in the article were broken; I fixed them all so that each would link to the right page.
 * 5) Removed duplicates.  The two original tables each had a number of duplicate materials; I removed the duplicates.
 * 6) Resorted tables.  The two original tables were incredibly disorganized (like the in-project materials selection menu); I reorganized them the best that I could with the time that I had, but there are still some mistakes in the orders.
