/// The data will be set at a higher level in the quad tree hierarchy. The reason for this is because if the
/// parent quadrant is also fully uniform, then any quadrants below it (this one) would have be removed,
/// wasting processor time.

/// If any of the sub-quadrants are of a fully uniform material (yet not *all* sub-quadrants like in the above
/// case) then the data for those sub-quadrants is set in the quad tree here, making those sub-quadrants leaf
/// nodes (an example of this could be Q1 and Q2 returning TerrainMaterial.None, Q3 returning
/// TerrainMaterial.Mud, and Q4 returning null since it is a 'mixed' quadrant and the data is set at a lower
/// level. In this situation Q1, Q2 and Q3 would have their data set at this level).
