    When landing on asphalt the game renders that splash animation and noise you get when landing on tar. And not only that .. though not sure .. am I moving slower when walking on asphalt? It feels like it. Could be a case of me expecting to move faster when running on asphalt.

    In any case, asphalt is currently just tar that takes slightly longer time to "mine".

    Had a look in the asphalt.material to see if I could fix this myself for the time being, and found the truth of this error.

    Since I play an Apex character, I did not see this ingame.
    • The thing is; who ever implemented this maybe thought that players would want some kind of Bitumen (aka asphalt) construction material instead of Pavement (also commonly known as asphalt).
    • Now the second thing is; This means that the Asphalt block works as the implementer intended and thus not an oversight issue. And more of a "I as a player disagree with the dev implementation" case. Thus maybe a moderator would be so kind to move this thread to [Suggestions/Blocks and Crafting]?
    To the asphalt block implementer: If I as a player need a sticky surface for a construction, I'll use the tar block. Let me have pavement. Ok? Thanks!
