Brick Editor

[General Omega]

I was thinking for V9 that we dont have any brick picker GUI and have an editor GUI like those in the forums where you choose the type of brikc you want the size and other stuff so we can customize our builds to be less laggy and minimize the # of bricks we use. I am not sure if it is good but I would like this to be in V9 so we could make our builds less bunched up with a bounch of 2x2x5's and 2x4x5 and stuff

Because the scale of the "bricks" cannot be changed without a new brick datablock, this is impossible because adding datablocks ingame would:
1) most likely disconnect everyone
2) lead to crashes if you made too many

Now say there was some crafty recoding that allowed for some sort of scale changes(which would most likely be very complicated coding at the least), then yes, we could probably have a feature like this.

there needs to be a limit lol like 20x20x20 at best
unless its a baseplate then other settings sure.   but i dont want to see full out frikin walls made

sometimes i wouldnt mind being able to pull out that perfect sized brick when i need. but that kind of kills the point of building well. its lazy planning, and in the end will make builds look bad when everyone starts using them.
having real standards keeps everyone at the same level.

should have just a sick amount of new bricks added to the game though, as long as they are all emulating real existing lego brick values (x)X(x)X(x) it wont get wierd.

No i was thinking that when you made 10 bricks then when you made another the oldest one or the one of your choice gets deleated. and what about this: Old Virsion
