On 'Full' Block Decorations

Hey guys,

I wanted to stop by and drop a few notes about 'full' blocks (specifically deco that appears like a textured block or a complete block).

As with anything in game development we learn and make adjustments. We wanted to try these out but it turns out that this isn't really a good solution for how to add 'textured' blocks. In addition adding textured blocks is a pretty big change to how we think about certain parts of the game. Basically, it's something we can do and we're going to investigate doing it, but adding it as deco isn't the way we should do it. It has performance implications and also doesn't work the way we'd want to in terms of culling and the amount you'd potentially use in an area.

So we'll be seeing what we can do to get it in the right way. It won't be something we're working on right away, but it won't be in the far future either. In the meantime we aren't going to add them in the current system. Thanks, and feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
