it would but since as of yet bricks cant be deghosted so it would automatically be a toggleable thing.
It should work by deghosting bricks outside of your sight range (or a set range outside of your sight range or person), and have the option to follow the server's max sight range or your own personal one (using advanced tab)
if made this would basically make more than 256k brick builds feasible since anything outside of your view can be deghosted, allowing the engine to, instead, ghost blocks within your vision range.

I don't know exactly how Ghosting works except that it takes a while, would de-ghosting take long or would it be quick? Wouldn't it also give more work for the server? Remember idk about Ghosting so fill me in on what I am wrong.

It is a cake right?

Ghosting is basically receiving brick positions and stuff from the server so yes de-ghosting would be one frozen hell faster

and no it wouldn't put more burden on the server, or no more than the second you spawn.
seriously why hasn't this been thought of before
would there be any engine limitations that prevent this being made?
