Okay, simple idea: Add more polygon bricks. Rather than just a quadrilateral, add polygons, like hexagons, pentagons, etc.

Now, I realize you can just create them, but most likely you'll have to anchor them meaning they can't move, they're usually not very smooth, and so on.

Simple idea, just make a basic block. Honestly this is kind of useless besides a few things, and making things easier, but it came to mind, so... yeah.

Feedback and all that rot.

Yeah, triangles are always horrid to make without solid modeling.

but this is a good idea

Solid Modeling doesn't even work with Wedges.

I have a lot of Plugins installed dedicated to creating triangles, each one works different, and they're all very efficient. I highly recommend you check out the studio plugins that the community created, they will make everything so much easier for you.

A roblox-wide addition of polygons would be excellent, though. It's a much needed update that could make it easier for anyone and everyone to create detailed structures.

"real suggestions aren't getting enough attention"

I'm not quite sure if you're saying this is a real suggestion or not....

And, I assume real suggestions get less attention due to how tempting troll bait always is.

Solid modeling, and if you don't want to use that just weld bricks together (there are plenty of good weld scripts out there).

Vortex,
did you even read the actual thread, or did you just read the name? ;-;

"Solid modeling"

You can't use Solid Modeling on wedges.

Can you imagine what a pain it would be to try and turn a bunch of rectancles, cylinders, and/or spheres into a triangle, pentagram, or pretty much any shape?

No, you will receive an error message if you attempt to use wedge parts in Solid Modeling.

It will say something along the lines of 'ROBLOX does not support this union' or something.

You CAN use a WedgePart for Solid Modeling. I've done it numerous times with no error.

Either way, Nyxis, it's still a pain, and many times has problems; especially with physics.

I know.

If you enable "ShowDecompositionGeometry" under Physics in Studio settings you can see the CSG Physics. And how it doesn't work 100%

Solid Modeling could still use a lot of work.

For now I tend to use plugins to resolve the issues I've been experiencing, but Polygons in general would be an excellent feature.

Solid modeling and anchoring is one of my worse ROBLOX nightmare ever. Just think of the evil work they do to you. D;

I would really like a CornerWedge with a triangle base.
