One thing I do like about TC3 is that the aspects available on different materials are logical, given the surrounding mythos\developmental locations of the materials, something I've always hated is when an item has something associated with it that makes no damn sense. Some examples, Carrots have the food and sight aspects, due to the old-wives-tale that eating carrots improves eyesight, cobblestone is broken stone so stone\destruction makes a great deal of sense.

Actually, carrots are rich in carotene which, when absorbed, turns into two different kind o A vitamin, really useful for your retinas. So, big surprise, your grandmother was right 
I'm loving Mystcraft, yes. I'm not looking for a solution to that right now though, I'm just wondering if my understanding of it is actually correct. It's more curiosity than anything else.
no you obviously havent even taken so much as a glance at TC3 if you honestly think that is true lol
Barrels + Routers is sorting bliss. Magic pack is awesome (and a great way to package TC3 with release), but I've been jonesing for some Factorization in my current map
Let her work and give her time. For all we know it could be the same 2 bugs. When Florastar updated us it was 4 major bugs.
While a deficiency in vitamin A can cause eye problems, increased consumption of carrots will not improve your eyesight if you are not already deficient. You can thank British Intelligence and the RAF for that particular myth, not your grandmother.Actually, carrots are rich in carotene which, when absorbed, turns into two different kind o A vitamin, really useful for your retinas.

Also, karotin is responsible for skin pigment. So too many carrots make you orange.
Did not know that, anyway I was just saying that the sight aspect in carrots is not that random
Interestingly, the root (heh) cause of the myth was the discovery of radar. The British had it, and the german's didn't, so their planes got shot down at a faster rate. The myth was dreamt up to try and divert suspicion away from the discovery, in the hopes that the germans wouldn't look too deeply into the matter.
