However, if you have a lot of different projects or very specific projects, it might not be the best idea to store all the user-defined items in one big database. Especially if you want to adjust certian properties of items, e.g. soil materials, for certain simulations or projects, it might be undesirable that these material changes will effect all other simulations as well - which will be the case if edited in the global User Database. | However, if you have a lot of different projects or very specific projects, it might not be the best idea to store all the user-defined items in one big database.
