If you do, you could set make it have all of the bricks ghosted when you plant the ghost brick of one (like the duplorcator). You could also make all of the bricks plant when you plant one. Then you only need of the brick to have a UI name.

With larger planets this would become absolutely ridiculous.
Gen. Hothauser:
People have made large item-based objects, such as the windmill and waterwheel, where changing a brick's item to windmill would spawn a large windmill, that cannot be picked up. This could easily be done for a sphere, I think, big enough to be a planet, maybe.

Demian, I think you should make the planet bricks separated by an upper 64x64 and a lower 64x64 planet corner, so that it would be easier to texture the spheres. Having 8 separate areas would not only help with texturing, but it could also help with space to build.

No. Those are too large.

Well that's my initial plan. Splitting the sphere (actually the land part) into 8 quarters. I plan on making the "sphere" itself a 2x2f that you plant at the very bottom of the sphere and that land half sphere on top of that.
