Usage and configuration
Tutorial 1/3
Tutorial 2/3
There is a bug with UE4SS, the shortcut NUM_0 does not work. NUM_ZERO is mapped to NUM_NINE. So, instead of pressing 0 (on the numpad), press 9 (on the numpad).
Tutorial 3/3
In update 0.3.0 you can align objects in a "circular" way.
Files
There are two configuration Lua files: options.lua and params.lua. These files will be automatically created on first run.

Troubleshooting
Known issues
- The game can crash at launch. This is probably an issue with UE4SS, I can't fix it.
- The game can freeze/crash/hang when you use the mod. Please make a backup before using it.
- When you press F4 multiple time to snap an object, the object must stay on the same point on the grid. But sometime it move on another point. This is a bug.
