Building / Block Storage Rework (better building mechanics)

If building got changed to this it would be nice. - Building Blocks weigh 0.1kg now - Building Blocks go in inventory now. - When hammer is out you can cycle through which Block you want to build with - When building the blocks always initially snap Up but can be position swapped and your character remembers the last used snapping. - When placing a block of a different type on an existing block it'll let you swap the blocks out. What do you get from this. - You'd be able to hold around 300+ blocks at once - You'd be able to more easily build things without trying to pixel perfect get the snap points. - You'd be able to able to more easily make custom things of various block types without frequent inventory swaps which is annoying. - You'd be able to more easily swap out older bases with newer blocks.

Thank you for your suggestion, unfortunately we believe that most of the desired functionality would make building way too easy and does not fit the design of Eco. It will hence unfortunately not be implemented. Note that you can use a number of admin commands and the developer tool for easy building without any restrictions and that you can already directly replace blocks for a while now.
