# material-layer-needs-graph

> Talos next · Since next

A material with a `maskGraph` can have up to 6 layers (HD), but a layer past the third has no coverage of its own: `maskGraph.layers` must name a node for it. Without a graph a material has at most 3 layers (`material-value-range`). docs/MATERIALS.md.
