Alright so, this is not a normal question, this Isn't for a game, this is a discussion type of question, this script would require an above average knowledge of scripting, and might not even be possible, but hypothetically speaking, could you possibly make it to where when you walk forward from a point(spawn) in the game, it loads the map, and it deletes the map while your walking behind you, but if you turn around and walk that way again it loads back up, and then the map that is NOW behind you starts getting deleted, and you can continue on until lets say 9000 Studs?
Hypothetically is this possible?

First of all with programming everything and anything is possible but not always realistic. So to start this can be done and roblox has a workspace property called streaming enabled which will do exactly what you described. However I am not sure if it can be modified to specific parameters but it is certainly something you might want to consider. Roblox can also do this with game quality in your roblox client menu however I dont think this is the effect you're looking for since it is client based. And Finally the last way that you could do this is manually by moving parts to and from server storage to the workspace on a local script with filtering enabled set to true. A few concerns with this is that in a rather larger game it could cause intense lag but it is definitely the closest to what you described and may cause problems for gameplay but thats your call and if you want an explanation on how to do that just ask in the comments and i will try and post an answer.

Well the only way I think that could be done is if you step on the brick once it turns visible(using transparency and cancollide) and then you touch it again it is invisible and turns collidable
well you can also use filtering enabled to utilize local parts but that is a more abstract roblox concept since it wasn't created intentionally
Never though of using filtering enabled like that before.
yeah it's an abstract idea but it does work and can allow developers to give each client a more custom experience without lagging the server. for example phantom forces guns are done that way if you have ever played that game before
