    I have a large grid of blocks and underneath that grid are a few 2x2 blocks. In order to destroy those large 2x2 blocks, I have to make sure the 4 blocks (all 1x1) on top of the 2x2 block is destroyed. Currently, all I can do is destroy the entire 2x2 block on mouse click even if I only have a single 1x1 block above it destroyed. Could anyone give me advice on what to do?

    You should use a voxel solution instead.

    Make the 1x1's children of the 2x2's and then check child count == 0 before destroying a 2x2?

    A voxel based solution would indicate 3D, right? I'm currently tinkering around in 2D so would that work?

    Yes, my bad.
    I don't think there's much of a use for a 2D version of it.
