A question about a variable

I literally quoted Badspot saying bricks don't do that.
You're disagreeing with the old you

Damn, figuring out those time strings takes forever
Brian Smithers:
While I have learned so much from you guys, thank you.
I have yet to find the answer to my question
Go into a server and actually do $debugOctTree = 1;
You'll notice thousands of blue lines everywhere.
What do they represent/mean

OH
I understand now.
If you look at them, they're cubes. It shows how the oct tree is currently understanding the bricks. Imagine it like this:
You have a 8x8 cube, and pretend 1x1 bricks are actually square instead of rectangles. When you place a brick at the corner of it, the oct tree breaks that up into smaller cubes plus the one you built. My guess this is to save memory using a sort of chunk system.

Oh cool. Thanks :)

Well that was a stupid idea.
