[Bf-committers] Softbody Button-naming proposal

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi,

One correction; the general "Friction" value better is not called  
'damping' here, it actually *is* "Media Friction", like for air and  
wind. Jens Ole implemented it to use this friction value to calculate  
the effect the Wind Forcefield has.

In a future release we also want to include it to check on the face  
normals for this kind of friction.
