Hey godotters!

I've been working on a Minecraft-inspired game in Godot, but I'm running into a problem with blocks that need physics.

I was using a GridMap for placing and breaking blocks. It works great for the voxel side of things, but it becomes really difficult when I want individual blocks to have their own behaviors. Since GridMap cells aren't separate nodes, they all effectively behave like static geometry. What I want is something closer to this:

If a block is connected (directly or indirectly) to blocks touching the ground, it stays static.

If a block or structure becomes disconnected and starts floating, it should become a physics object and fall.

Players should be able to pick up blocks, throw them around, attach ropes between them, build moving contraptions, etc.

GridMaps help a lot with performance but then making these interactions becomes a lot more complex!

Has anyone done something similar in Godot? Is there a common approach for combining voxel-style building with dynamic physics objects? Would I need to abandon GridMaps entirely and use a custom voxel system, or is there a better solution I'm overlooking?

Any advice, examples, or resources would be appreciated.

Ayee had a deal with USB storage device companies to increase their sales, so he made up this lbp server that requires a USB thing and dropped it when the USB sales reached their goal.

Well I dont think we're getting ayee's server anymore... what was the server software he was using? Cant we have our hands on it and run it ourselves? Ayee wasnt any genious lol, if he or his team were able to make servers for the ps4, the more talented beacon or bonsai people probably can! Also, would it be worth a shot to try contacting epic at least since he supposedly made the server? If they arent gonna use it anymore at least let us try it... it would save ayee's reputation a bit to undo the horrible damage he did.
