TOOL v2.3 - Rotation Indicator and Rotate Around Center
DOWNLOAD REMOVED BECAUSE THERE'S A NEWER VERSION.
Always use TwistedMexi.com to grab latest updates.
TOOL v2.3 brings a new feature called Rotate Around Center. It's a toggle in the rotate dialog that lets you choose whether group rotation will rotate all objects around their own axis, or around the group's center.
This video demonstrates the difference.
Many players requested this, as it'll allow them to rotate TOOL-only builds after they've finished, instead of having to plan which rotation they want to begin with. I hope everyone enjoys.
Rotation Around Center added to Rotate Dialog
Added an improved rotation indicator. The circle is now a gradient.
Dim = 0. Bright = 360.
Positive rotation amounts will always move dim -> bright.
TOOL Quick-Start
The usage is the same as regular TOOL, except you will automatically be placed in TOOL mode any time the TOOL dialog is open.
Toggle TOOL in build mode by pressing Shift+T
In addition, shift+clicking surfaces will automatically place a group box marker. This can be used in combination with the Toggle Group button to highlight many objects at once.
When the TOOL extension is open, ctrl+z and ctrl+y will handle the TOOL undo/redo instead of the buildbuy undo/redo. Buildbuy undo still works when TOOL is closed.
If you're new to TOOL entirely, refer to my original tutorial.

Thank you so much! THIS RULES SO FREAKING HARD
Ok. Thanks.
Will we get an update for the clean UI mod soon? All the icons in the top right corner are overlapping on me. It's the one mod I truly can't play without.
Yes it's what I was working on before this patch changed plans. Probably next week.
Updated for patch?
Didn't require updating.
