Weight calculation
An item's weight is determined by multiplying its volume by the density of its material divided by 1000. For example, iron (7.85) bars (200) weigh 1570Γ.
Items also have a "bulk" which does not depend on the material and is used to determine clutter as well as how many items can fit into a container.
