Hey, if there are brick DTS's, can someone make me a brick projectile?

I was wondering when someone would ever make a weapon that shoots bricks.

A square version of the rocket launcher might be just fine, or some kind of cannon.

You would need a mount-point in every possible position for a brick to go. Adding thirty bots to the server for one vehicle doesn't seem like a good idea.

It could be done like the player's avatar - have a cuboid of 1x1 brick nodes on the model that you can hide/show/colour as needed. It wouldn't be very customisable though. (Shaped bricks would require having an entirely new set of nodes per kind. Mountpoints still have to be pre-set in some way. (it'd basically be a jeep that some bits turn invisible on) and I don't think nodes stop it colliding with projectiles etc. (if in one configuration you can have a screen in front of the driver things would hit it even if it's not placed)

But doesn't that generate the same problems that people brought up about a gun with attachments?
