• EXPORTS:

  • CGameCtnAnchoredObject@ DuplicateAndAddItem(CGameCtnEditorFree@ editor, CGameCtnAnchoredObject@ origItem, bool updateItemsAfter = false)
    • Use this to add an item to the map. When the item is returned, it will not yet have been loaded into the map unless updateItemsAfter was true. Suggestion: unless you are adding 1 item only, keep updateItemsAfter as false.
  • SetAO_ItemModel(CGameCtnAnchoredObject@ ao, CGameItemModel@ itemModel)
    • Use this to set the item model of an anchored object. May crash the game if the item is not loaded and used arbitrarily. Intended to be paired with DuplicateAndAddItem so you can change the item model. This is a beta feature and might change in future.
  • void UpdateNewlyAddedItems(CGameCtnEditorFree@ editor)
    • Calling this will load items that have been added via DuplicateAndAddItem. This SHOULD ALWAYS be called after adding items (ideally you batch them). The game might crash at some point in the future otherwise.
    • This also adds an undo/redo autosave point (it does not autosave the map, just lets the mapper press 'undo').

• show inventory/map cache loading status in menubar
• probably some stuff i forgot

• Next Placed: Added randomization for moving item phase offset

• Add "Misc" tab for misc editor things
• Improve item spectators manipulation UI / functions
• Fix bug with mesh replacement picker where some nods would not be available for selection.
• Fix incomplete materials list (ran too early at startup)

• Add editing support for GmSurf (only works with material IDs on Shapes). can be used to create bumpers and boosters with interesting new properties.
• Add nullify options for EntityModelEdition and CPlugCrystal -- allows working with some items from Mesh Modeller. If, after nullifying the EME, you try and save an item model and EntityModel is null, then you need to reload the item and possibly remove some meshes (in MM), save, and nullify the EME, save again.
  • For example, this can be used like so:
  • Place platform ice red booster block
  • Turn into custom item
  • In mesh modeller, remove the side bits
  • Save
  • Nullify EME
  • Save again
  • It's now not a crystal (and probably isn't editable in MM anymore)

• Add some more tabs and info for SIG_DEVELOPERs

• Other minor fixes and polish

• Add apply phase offset tab (like apply color)

• Add window for the Item Editor: placement params and animation parameters for custom moving items
• Add documentation tab with editor some controls (kb shortcuts etc)
• Add 'exclude CPs' option for randomizer (altering a CP resets linked status)
