Add Platinum?

Platinum is a rare metal, and is also known as a "noble metal", which is the reason i'm bringing it up. Platinum is often used in machines and lab equipment that need to work with caustic chemicals, and also has found use in Catalytic Converters, a common part of modern combustion powered vehicles (That means cars).

The catalytics portion of this is the main reason to add it, as Platinum is a common catalyst for handling burn waste, processing naphtha into gasoline(!), and as a catalyst in fuel cells.

In terms of coloring it, it'd probably be advisable to take a leaf from Thermal Foundation's book and give it a metallic cyan color.

Although I don't think using others' textures is a good idea, instead of using our own, so probably won't happen. (just saying)

@Pannoniae Will remove that note. I was thinking of the "ALL RIGHTS RESERVED" on the codebase, and decided to be blind at that moment.

@moonheart08 yeah, that's confusing :D Basically it says "all rights reserved, but we have the rights so here are the terms: - for code: don't be a jerk license, for assets: that"

@elesti added textures / jsons for platinum.

I don't like metallic cyan for platinum, it's one of the few boring white metals that truly, genuinely has a claim to being really, really white. So we went with white. But yes, absolutely!
