Shipbuilding wishlist

Maybe some of these are possible, but i have not been able to find em. Then again im not that handy with this as some designs ive seen.

 

- show x- y- and z axes as reference on how movement will work

- allow me to rotate the design. to often i seem to have misplaced an item out of center. Also i cant see what to edit at bottem

- make new non places modules less transparent so i can see them better before placing them

- the opposite for when i use offset. offset makes the rest blacked out 

- on oscillate give both the green and red slider their own slider. The way it is now i cant edit it properly in the text field

- have all modules been scaled to the base module (think ive seen this mentioned before)

- alow me to copy a module i adjusted

- on rotate the cancel buttons click is above the img

 - on rotate show axis which it will turn around. I get the feeling they rotate around the side of a module instead of the center of a module. both should be possible

- toggle symmetry buttons should be about x-, y- an z axe no horizontal, vertical or minor. this makes it confusing for me  :rolleyes:

- a simple way to multi-select modules and group en from the design

 

will add more when i come across more items

 

 

cheers

You can currently rotate the design by holding down the middle mouse button and moving the mouse around.  I don't find that terribly easy to do, though, it's far too hard to restrict rotation around just the x, y, or z axis.

There is an issue with offsets, and rotation at the moment were, parts will orient to the Part and not the world, this might be causing some of your problems.

In the next build we will have a visual gizmo that should make XYZ much easier to visualize.

Part and module scaling will be heavily adjusted, by the artiest before Beta.

As for the rest, most of these issues fall into our list for current tasks, lots of UI cleanup, and optimization in the works.
