| 11 | +This version WILL only work on KSP 1.4.1. There is no support for KSP 1.4.0 |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +Please note that the best way to tell if it works is to download and install it, if it isn't compatible, it will tell you. It's been known to happen that I update the mod and forget to update this OP |
| 14 | +Dependencies |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | + Click Through Blocker |
| 17 | +Toolbar Controller |
| 18 | +CKAN has been updated to install both automatically, but if installing manually, you must install them for this to work |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | +Also, be sure you are installing the latest versions |
| 21 | + |

| 36 | +New Feature (8/6/2018) |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +Added button to Settings page 2 to "Reset Symmetry Mode & Angle Snap keys |
| 39 | +New features |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +Added ability to disable the SelectRoot functionality, so you can use the stock SelectRoot to change the root on a shadow assembly |
| 42 | +Added Master Snap mode. This allows you to snap parts to any random part, not just the parent. This works for both horizontal and vertical snapping. The part selected as the master will be highlighted. See below for info on usage |
| 43 | +Snapping is shown visually via a smooth movement of the part from the original location to the destination |
| 44 | +Features |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +Allows custom levels of radial symmetry beyond the stock limitations. |
| 47 | +Horizontally and vertically center parts. |
| 48 | +Adds radial/angle snapping at 1,5,15,22.5,30,45,60, and 90 degrees. Angles are customizable. |
| 49 | +Toggle part clipping (From the cheat options) |
| 50 | +Re-Align placed struts and fuel lines between parts |
| 51 | +Toggle radial and node attachment of parts |
| 52 | +Reset hangar camera view |
| 53 | +Customize hotkeys |
| 54 | +KSP-AVC versioning support |
| 55 | +Fine adjustments of rotation and translation now working |
| 56 | +Vertical/Horizontal snap: |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +Place the part, then once the part is placed, hover over the part with your mouse and press the Vertical or Horizontal snap hotkey. |
| 59 | +For vertical snap, part will center itself on the part lengthwise in the SPH |
| 60 | +Master Snapping |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +Hold down "left control" and select the "master" part |
| 63 | +Hover the cursor over the child part and press "v" for vertical snap or "h" for a horizontal snap. This will snap the child part to the master part's vertical or horizontal position |
| 64 | +Click on an empty space to turn off Master Snap |
| 65 | +This should prove to be very useful for VTOLs where you can't apply engines in symmetry. |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +Strut & Fuel line alignment |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +Place the strut, then hover over the base/start of the strut (the first end placed) with the mouse, and press the hotkey. |
| 70 | +Strut/FL start and end with be snapped to the closest of either the middle, quarter, or end of the part, aligned directly between the two parts. |
| 71 | +Mod/Alt-U will reposition the strut/FL directly between the parts, but only level out the strut from the start/parent part. |
| 72 | +Fine Adjustments |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +Open Fine Adjust window, then select a part with either the rotation or translation gizmo |
| 75 | +The window will show the correct info for the current gizmo when you select a part. If you change gizmos while not selecting a new part, the window will not update for the new gizmo, but you can select the right one by clicking the button at the top of the window |
| 76 | +Keys will allow adjusting the rotation and translation with greater precision |
| 77 | +Default Keybindings |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +V- Vertically center a part. Place the part, hover over it with the mouse, and press the hotkey. |
| 80 | +H- Horizontally center the part. Place the part, hover over it with the mouse, and press the hotkey. |
| 81 | +U- Place the strut, then hover over the base/start of the strut (the first end placed) with the mouse, and press the hotkey. |
| 82 | +X, Shift+X- Increase/Decrease symmetry level (Based on KSP's key map) |
| 83 | +Alt+X- Reset symmetry level (Based on KSP's key map) |
| 84 | +C, Shift+C- Increase/Decrease angle snap (Based on KSP's key map) |
| 85 | +Alt+C- Reset angle snap (Based on KSP's key map) |
| 86 | +T- Attachment mode: Toggle between surface and node attachment modes for all parts, and when a part is selected, will toggle surface attachment even when that part's config usually does not allow it. |
| 87 | +Alt+Z- Toggle part clipping (CAUTION: This is a cheat option) |
| 88 | +Space- When no part is selected, resets camera pitch and heading (straight ahead and level) |
| 89 | +B - Horizontally center the root part in the editor, and vertically position the vessel so the bottom part is 5m high (new) |
| 90 | +Warning on Keybindings |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +Note in very rare circumstances the symmetry and angle snap keybindings might be lost. This would only occur if another mod triggers the game to save its settings while in the VAB/SPH, *and* the game subsequently crashes or is killed before exiting the building. If it happens, you can easily restore the keybindings (X and C by default) by hovering over the toolbar button and selecting the menu option "Reset Mode & Snap keys". |
| 93 | +Stock keybinding (change in stock config screen) |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | + R - Toggle symmetry mode from SPH to VAB style (mirror to radial). |
| 96 | +Fine Adjust Translation Default Keybindings |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +Up-arrow - translates up |
| 99 | +Down-arrow - translates down |
| 100 | +Left-arrow - translates left |
| 101 | +Right-arrow - translates right |
| 102 | +Right-Shift - translates forward |
| 103 | +Right-Control - translates backward |
| 104 | +Fine Adjust Rotation Default Keybindings |
| 105 | + |
| 106 | +Up-arrow - rotates forward |
| 107 | +Down-arrow - rotates backward |
| 108 | +Left-arrow - rotates left |
| 109 | +Right-arrow - rotates right |
| 110 | +Right-Shift - rotates clockwise |
| 111 | +Right-Control - rotates counterclockwise |
| 112 | +Strip Symmetry |
| 113 | + |
| 114 | +Alt-Shift left-click on the part and symmetry will be stripped from it |
| 115 | +No Offset Limits |
| 116 | + |
| 117 | +The offset tool now does not have any limits. Nothing needs to be done, this just works |
| 118 | +Select Root Functionality |
| 119 | + |
| 120 | +Squad added a root part selection mode to stock. But it's a bit awkward to use. This plugin fixes the following things: |
| 121 | + |
| 122 | +Only one click needed. Just click on the part you want to be the new root. |
| 123 | +Works if you're already hovering the new part. No more mouse wiggling to get the selection to register. |
| 124 | +Drops the new root, so you can grab something else immediately. |
| 125 | +Select Root Usage: Enter root selection mode and click on the new root part. Root selection mode is one of the buttons on top next to the rotate and offset gizmos. Or just press 4 |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +Note: that for ghosted subassembly re-root to work, you need to deactivate "1 click reroot" feature. Once back to "vanilla 2 click re-root", you can click re-root, click the ghosted subassembly and then click the engine on the ghosted subassembly. |
