Bricks don't occlude completely. And not just because they're out of vision either.
They will hide faces if the side is completely covered.
Feel free to try and prove it wrong with screenshots.
I was also referring to bricks not being occluded by terrains/interiors. Not by other bricks.

What?
How am I supposed to take a screenshot of something that is out of view? Bricks do not occlude. I can actually prove it, too. Turn that variable on, $debugOctTree=1;
Look in console. There's actually a section that says occlude (0qrys, 0hid nodes)
0 occlision queries == no occlision.

Make a cube of 1x1s. Teleport inside the cube. All you will see are the outside edges of the cube.

Obviously, that doesn't mean it occludes the other sides..
I see what you mean, if two bricks are touching the side is occluded, but we're not talking about that.

Actually I believe we were talking about that.
