Description

Self-contained class for polygon data

Looking from the outside, vertices should be specified counter-clockwise

If specified, the normal should point inward

Normals for every vertex can be specified, too (for smooth lighting)

If a material other than "defaultmaterial" is used,

it must be elsewhere defined and show()'ed as a NewMaterial

Texture coordinates are not yet implemented in Tarantula
