I typed weight and was redirected to density. I am of the opinion that we need a separate weight article, like the value article, which explains how weight is determined in DF2010. The formula used for determining the weight of an item is now by category. For example, as near as I can tell, the formula for the item_pants.txt file is (layer size * material density)/5190, while item_armor.txt is (layer size/ material size )*(material density/1010). There appears to be some bugs as well, like how everything under item_helms.txt uses (layer size * material density)/60000 EXCEPT for a helm which uses material density/1010. --PencilinHand 06:32, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

Okay, go write something up DF2010:Weight. Mason (T-C) 16:38, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
