Question about Materials.

I have noticed a lot of times, that when I get a material, sometimes this material appears higher in the screen (You know, when you get a material and this appears above your head). One friend of mine told me to inmediatly go to haven and craft an item with that material, and that it had better chance of getting UVs.
Is it true, or theres something else? Or is it just a bug?

I think it might be due to there being a clip right next to him, and the icon going up on top of the clip. Item icons are real objects - they are subject to clips, even when floating over his head.
Reminds me of a time when I shield-bumped a Kat on top of a roof in Dark City: Plazamonium. Shame we couldn't stop it from lunging back off.

New Recruits forum is for asking questions.
Your friend just trolled you, hard.
