Summary0011704: Liquid filth gets less dense when frozen
DescriptionMost materials get more dense when they solidify, so it seems fair to assume that liquid filth would follow suit.

FILTH_Y is strongly implied to be urine, so. Guess what's mostly water, and likewise guess what's less dense when frozen?

@chaosvolt : Where is this implied? I'd assume that "filth" would refer to a general conglomerate of "nasty whatever", so besides the aqueousness and the color (which aren't very restrictive), I don't see any reason to assume it's pee.

There's Y(ellow) and B(rown) filth, which strongly suggests they're representing urine and feces respectively.

Further, yellow filth is set to have the same density as water and is liquid at the expected temperatures, while brown filth stays solid.
