A feature request: freely adjustable blockers and safe/kill areas

I got this idea when making an outdoor map.

Right now it’s pretty clumsy to surround an open map with kill/safe areas or player blockers. Player blockers only exist in pre-determined sizes and are not adjustable, and kill/safe areas can only be a rectangle or a circle. So unless your map is the shape of a rectangle or a circle adding those boundaries is clumsy as you have to surround the map with several kill areas to form a wall. Player blockers are especially clumsy to add because you can’t even adjust their size.

So I thought it would be nice to have the option to freely form the safe/kill areas or player blockers when needed.

I like how Far Cry does their safe/kill areas:
It’s just a circle with occasional dots…you can grab any dot and drag it to where you want the border of your map to be, or even click on the line at any point to create a new “dot” which can be dragged to where you need it…changing the original “circle with dots” into a system of dots that perfectly conform to the shape of your play area, connected by lines that represent the new border line…wish 343 would have taken this approach instead…
