"Our" materials patch, I hope. A fair assignment of credit would be
less than 50% to myself, and I am quite happy with the current outcome.

Regarding these two issues I raised.
1) spacing change. 
I was wrong here. Changing fonts fixed this.
I suppose there might be an issue with default fonts, but it would
be expected that a person would be able to adjust with the preferences.

2) Infinite capacity.
On reflection, I agree with Hans solution. All materials should have
some sort of limit anyway. I am not currently a game designer, so
I cannot be expected to argue some sort of contrary position I dont
agree with anyway.

Thanks for everyone who made this capacity idea possible.
Sorry for the fuss. If it wasnt for my font problem, I wouldnt have
raised these issues. Time to move on.
