- Mithril Oreby Salty Moist CrustDescription Adds mithril as mid- to late-game ore. It is a pretty light and strong metal, but not as strong as adamantine.

- Vanilla material elasticity fixesby PutnamPatches material raws to have more realistic properties.

- Materials Plusby PutnamAdds a few alloys and a bunch of ores to get some of the extra materials added by the metal library. It might be better to have the minerals in the metal library? I dunno.
