Vertically applied bricks?

[Chrono]

Reason we can't toss a brick onto it's side and build it like that is because the height of a brick is 0.6 and the width is 0.5.
'Nuff said.

No, we would have the same brick capability as now. But I don't think Badspot wants it, or at least he has to change the engine code for this to work.

don't sound like you have a clue how the engine works or how our building system works.

Sadly no, but This is an awsome Idea!

Not really.

From this comment alone I gather you have no loving idea.

sorry, my bad... i did some research. I thought rendering was graphics. But for never taking a computer class in my life and only being in the 10th grade can you give me at least some credit?

[erik5022]

i don't think it would be possible with the way bricks are rendered.

nothing is impossible. It can be done. I will research this further. I just hope I'm right lol.

[erik5022]

Of course you are a professional in this stuff, seeing as you put the z-axis as the x-axis  

yes you're right I do this for a living every day... Not really I actually have a life. Jack ass. It's just a game sorry I said X instead of Z. I was just trying to give an idea. My loving bad!

Computer class = How to use Database, Word and Excel. Powerpoint if your lucky.

They dont teach you stuff about computers.

That's gay... I already know how to use excel, word, powerpoint (well not database though). I think they should teach higher class computer stuff in high school.

Lucky me, I got Animation in 8th grade :D

Yeah lol... lucky you. I got crap like woods and technology crap with teacher's that just plain out sucked...

Actually no, I do.
Currently how the lag is prevented is the quad areas that are behind bricks are completely unrendered. I don't think rotating the brick will have any effect on the quad areas.

EDIT: But Chrono is right. It won't work because the length/width is different to the height.

You can change that to make it work in the engine itself though.

wrong.
the solution to lag happens to be the thing keeping us from rotating bricks (without all the 0002 lag again)

We would need a whole 2nd grid if we wanted to do that.
