I have been wondering a while now if it would be possible in a future update to make it so cuboid bricks could have their dimensions defined in-game. I often find myself frustrated because I need a 1x5 brick that I forgot to enable, or realize that some design would look better if I had something that was 1 and 2/3 bricks high, or any infinite possibilities. I imagine that it could be done similarly to how bricks are generated in
this video.
Sure, special bricks such as ramps and windows can still be made into addons, especially since they also need a .dts file to work properly, but I think that the possibility for builds would expand greatly with this update. Never again would anyone need to download addons for cuboid bricks!
I have no idea what impact this would have on datablocks, but I imagine that something will need to change drastically, so each cuboid brick doesn't take up its own datablock, and people don't crash from loading datablocks while in game.
