Ooh i was thinking about the possibility of this after some gameplay at trecnh wars stuff.
Good idea! :D

Demian:
Just add a simple option to ignore evented bricks. So if you have a wall of 1x1 bricks and one of them is evented, the script will leave that brick as is and just join together the rest.

^yes

I had a loving great idea to make this a lot easier to make, and a smaller script too...
Instead of say making this code over and over again for each brick combo to check for:

--- Code: --- if(%northsouth.dataBlock $= "brick1x4Data" && isrot(%brick) && isrot(%northsouth))
{
if(getword(%brick.position,1) > getword(%northsouth.position,1))
makebrick("brick1x6Data",addvec(%brick.position,1,-1),%brick.color,0,%brick.client);
else
makebrick("brick1x6Data",addvec(%brick.position,1,1),%brick.color,0,%brick.client);
%brick.delete();
%northsouth.delete();
}
if(%eastwest.dataBlock $= "brick1x4Data" && !isrot(%brick) && !isrot(%eastwest))
{
if(getword(%brick.position,0) > getword(%eastwest.position,0))
makebrick("brick1x6Data",addvec(%brick.position,0,-1),%brick.color,1,%brick.client);
else
makebrick("brick1x6Data",addvec(%brick.position,0,1),%brick.color,1,%brick.client);
%brick.delete();
%eastwest.delete();
}

--- End code ---

I could simply loop though a list of things are replace certain feilds there with the correct values, and make a function to add things to the list easily.
The result is like this:

--- Code: ---addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x2Data","brick1x8Data",2,"brick1x10Data");
addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x2Data","brick1x6Data",1.5,"brick1x8Data");
addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x2Data","brick1x4Data",1,"brick1x6Data");
addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x2Data","brick1x2Data",0.5,"brick1x4Data");
addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x3Data","brick1x3Data",0.75,"brick1x6Data");
addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x4Data","brick1x4Data",1,"brick1x8Data");
addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x6Data","brick1x6Data",1.5,"brick1x12Data");
addbrickreductioncheck_2dstr("brick1x8Data","brick1x8Data",2,"brick1x16Data");

--- End code ---

I just made this whole process a hell of a lot easier, and the script a lot smaller.
