Changing Brick Materials

To first understand how to change materials on a brick, you must understand what a material is. A material is what type of element a brick looks like. You can make a brick look like wood, metal, grass, concrete, and more! The default material is plastic.

This is the Material property in the Properties Window.

The picture on the right shows the Material property in the Properties Window. The Material property has an enum associated with it. The Material Enum has 9 different types in it. The chart below shows the different types of Materials. Please note that unlike other enums, this enum does not go in order from 0 to it's highest number. It skips around, and doesn't start with 0.
