Material Updating Stage

Hi everyone,

I came to a question related to updating stage for materials by checking this example on the website:
http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... -Example_8
1. Why just one of the materials is updated in Stage 0 and the other not?
2. When we update the material stage it means that the new materials are added to the number of our materials? Because we have just 2 types of materials here ('nDMaterial PressureDependMultiYield' and 'nDMaterial FluidSolidPorous') in this example but in the records, material 3 is asked or the output!

Many thanks in advance!
Bests,
