possible (simple?) adjustments and commands to existing features and a few new items

  • added 12/14/2017


    1: fine movement increment increases, example (hold an Alt key) to give your fine movement of a board 10 increments instead of the tilt ~ command of setp 100 (that gives the ten space increment) (learned that while writing this up)


    2: a crowbar tool to pickup logs, planks and beams like the sledge hammer to a block


    3: Be able to turn off animations or specific animations of like the trees


    4: color paint/stain wheel. Make a block, log, plank and beam set to use this feature and a handful of other textures like the plasters, concrete textures
    make the staining of woods with a transparency slider option for how much the natural wood grain shows through


    5: (survival mode) designate each type of wood to its tree type, this would have to implement each texture to lumber, then designated to each processed log, plank and beam
    this would require more tree options the nut trees and rain forest biom or tree types
    5.5: add in the nuts and can process nuts into the edible nuts baked in oven or over grill (use the grinder station to shell them)


    6: new item, nails, say one iron bar needed to make a 100 nails


    7: (survival mode) nails are needed to place planks and beams (say 4 nails for beams and 16 for planks) if possible adjust the number based on the size of the plank and beam.


    8: new tool can be placed in the equipment slot, tape measure, can click on your starting point then click on the second point. Will be an excellant way to measure out an area to manually size a plank to fit a hole without typing in a huge list of resizing commands


    9: blue print stretcher commands, can only be used on PNB based prints and the commands will resize the print in your x y z


    10: auto positioning of PnB through snap and Rctrl command doesn't work for everyone :cursing: so instead can a key be designated to the auto positioning of a plank and beam to what your courser is over
    (found out that you can position a plank or beam by using the enter key then mouse wheel to another hand held slot then go back to your plank and its now re positioned to what you had snapped it to)


    11: size command, change it so the hold Lshift and arrow keys can adjust to the max of 16 and then add the page up down to adjust the thickness of logs, planks and beams?
    still keep the manual typing in of sizes for the 0.01 hundredths adjustments in the command section


    12: A Hole cutter tool for PnB. for instance I can place a large plaster plank wall that covers up a window and door then i can use this tool to mark out the window and door and cut out the hole
    If something like this is possible


    Will continue to add more stuff as they come up to this list
