That's actually a good idea
Why can't we render a super high-res shadow map once we finished ghosting the bricks (assuming noone modifies the bricks during i.e. a TDM), and then only render shadows for players and stuff?

TGE has support for Baked Shadows, so there's a good chance Badspot could write his own baked shadows script.

Because our sun moves and even if it only takes effect when day/night cycle is off, it would have to re-render a high quality shadow every time a brick is planted, deleted, unrendered, fakekilled, colored, etc.
