    Circles are great, but sometimes they're hard to work with as they are irregular block-wise. I've found that hexadecagons work better under some circumstances as they look almost circular and are more regular block-wise. I would like to have a build helper to make building them easier.

    Sure. Do you mean hexadecagon rather than hedron? Because according to wikipeidia there are like 30,000 different 3d shapes that could be considered hexadecahedrons.

    *facepalm* I'm too used to typing "dodecahedron."

    Why not also hexagons and octagons?
    (octagons are relatively easy to build, but calculating where the corners should be to have all sides have the same length[as far as blocks allow] is a hassle)
