fxDTSBrickData is the brick datablock. The brick transparency has been messing up since the shaders.

Well, the objects on "buildable vehicles" aren't bricks.

You usually only find bugs with brick transparency by specifically looking for them.

If by "shapes" you're talking about "static shapes"; the Buildable Vehicles add-on does not use static shapes.

The issue is that fxDTSBrick and fxPlane objects do not render through several types of transparent objects, including static shapes, players, vehicles and more.
In layman's terms, the ground and all bricks are invisible when observed through the transparent part of a vehicle you have built.

Do you mean by how when you look through a transparent brick you can no longer see water?
