    New gatherable node in Island Sanctuary misnamed

    Hey everybody and a happy patch day to all of you.

    I noticed that one of the new gathering node types in Island Sanctuary is named "Stalactite" when targeted. However, since they are growing from the ground toward the ceiling and not the other way around, they should be called "Stalagmite".

    These nodes can be found in the area "Mountain Hollow", unlockable at Sanctuary Rank 13, at and about X: 26.0, Y: 19.0.

    It is worth noting that the Japanese version of the game uses the wrong term for it (鍾乳石 instead of 石筍). From the limited research I did this seems to be an outright error which is why English, French and German also use the terms for Stalactite instead of Stalagmite.

    Here's the Japanese:


    The French:


    And finally, the German:


    I did make another post about this on the German forums, however my French and Japanese skills are not nearly good enough to post on their respective forums so I would appreciate it if someone could relay this to them.

    A secondary issue with the same node is that the material it yields is called "spectrine" which (at least from checking Wikipedia) seems to be an invented word, which seems an odd decision when it could easily be calcite or alabaster.
