addedThis update adds a couple quality-of-life improvements that have been requested:
addedAdded Lock Functionality for Material Slots - if you press 'L' when hovering a slot, a lock will toggle on it - this keeps the slot tied to that material identity even if you empty it, so you don't accidentally change your slot assignments around. - If you are not hovering a slot, 'L' will toggle lock on whatever the current selected slot is. - The tooltip when hovering a slot will tell you when it is locked. - Lock status is saved/restored in the savegame
