This update introduces a series of powerful features that enhance the user experience and provide complete control over waypoint distance display:
✨ New features in version 3.0

✨ New features in version 2.0
- **Use arrow keys to move text**:
On-screen text can now be repositioned using `Ctrl + ← / ↑ / ↓ / →`, allowing you to place text anywhere on the screen to suit your preference
- **Precise positioning mode**:
Use `Ctrl + Shift + Arrow keys` for fine control to move text in very small steps, ideal for precise alignment
- **Continuous Mobile Support**:
When you hold down any directional key, the text will continue to move until you release the key, allowing for smooth and flexible adjustments.
- **Change font size in game**:
Use the shortcut `Ctrl + F1` to switch between 3 font sizes: small, medium and large
- **Automatic settings saved**:
Any changes to text position or font size are automatically saved to the `DistanceSettings.ini` file, no need to save manually - your settings are automatically restored when the game starts
🎯 Initial version features
- **Display waypoint distance**:
The script displays the distance between the player and the active waypoint in the upper left corner of the screen. This value automatically updates when the player moves or changes the waypoint position

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
