Is this feasable or am I really stretching the bounds of feasibility here?
The problem with DC is that the perspectives are not completely logical. This means that sometimes it is a matter of feeling and personal taste how to solve the problems with special walls (e.g. round walls, diagonal walls or "wall-floors").
Therefore, I assume that creating a program for creating grids might work, but you would still have to improvise a lot while drawing your walls using the grids. In my opinion it is not worth the effort (although the idea is certainly interesting).
