Currently when we change the reflectivity of a brick, it changes the transparency of one enviroment map based on the default skybox (that ROBLOX didn't even make, I might add). Even if we change the skybox, the enviroment map doesn't change. I propose we are given the ability to change this to whatever we like.

Hmm... I like it. But could you elaborate on how it'd work?

Simple; a property in Lighting is reflection map and you select a decal's ID just as you do with skyboxes.

so you mean if my skybox is a rainbow, the reflection will show a rainbow? if so, support.

Pretty much although it's interchangable so you can have a different colored skybox than the reflection if you like.
