SphereEditorTools

SphereEditorTools

A QoL mod aims to improve dyson sphere editing experience.

Feature

Custom Hotkeys

When the building plan toolbox is displayed, you can use the hotkeys to switch between different tools.

All hotkeys used in this mod are customizable in configuration, key name can be found in Unity manual - InputManager.

Symmetric Building Tool

You can now build or remove multiple entities at once!

Symmetric tool can be toggle with tab. There are two types of symmetry in the tool:

Mirror symmetry: When it is activated (hotkey m), it will create corresponding reflections on the other side of the equator.

Rotational symmetry: Numpad [+]/[-] to increase/decrease the number of brushes on the same latitude, ranging from 1 to 90.

To multiple selection, hold ctrl and click 3 times to include the original object. To keep selecting, hold Ctrl and click on other objects.

Orbit Modification Tool

Anchor Mode: When enabled, the selected layer rotation will stop, the grid orientation will be changed immediately when the orbit is modified and the position of structures will remain unchanged. It can fix the grid misalignment problem.

Angular speed: Change the angular speed of selected layer. Input empty string will reset the orbit angular speed.

Hide Object

When mask is enabled in the GUI window, a black mask will appear in the background.

You can also use hotkey h to hide dyson swarm and the star.

Compatiblity

• ImportDysonLayer: The symmetry building tools may not work with this mod.
• NebulaMultiplayerMod: Some features (e.g. anchor mode) won't sync. Recommand to create blueprint in single player mode.

Installation

功能

自定義熱鍵

當工具箱顯示時，可以用熱鍵來切換不同的建造工具。其他功能也可以用熱鍵操控。

這個MOD用到的熱鍵都可以在設置中自定義，鍵名可以在Unity手冊 - Input Manager中找到。

對稱建設工具

啓用後，可以用熱鍵tab開關，開啓時能同時用多個筆刷建造或拆除。

鏡像對稱以赤道面對稱，開啓時(m)會在赤道另一側半球產生對應的筆刷。

旋轉對稱以自轉軸對稱，數值表示在同一個緯線上有多少個筆刷，範圍在1-120(數字鍵盤[+][-]增減)。

軌道修改工具

錨定節點：啓用後，所選層停止旋轉，修改軌道時將會立即改變網格位置，節點位置保持不變。可以修復網格錯位問題。

角速度：改變所選層的角速度。輸入空字符串將重置軌道的角速度。

隱藏物體

在操作窗口中啓用遮罩後，會出現一個黑色遮罩並擋住戴森球體的背部部分。

熱鍵h可以切換恆星和遮罩的顯示狀態。

兼容性

• ImportDysonLayer：對稱建設工具無法與此mod兼容。
• NebulaMultiplayerMod：部分功能（例如軌道修改）無法同步。建議在單人模式下創建藍圖再使用。

安裝

通過管理器r2modman，或者手動下載文件並將SphereEditorTools.dll放入BepInEx/plugins文件夾。

設置.cfg文件需要先運行過遊戲一次纔會出現，修改後要重啓遊戲纔會生效。

管理器安裝: 左邊選項Config editor -> 找到starfi5h.plugin.SphereEditorTools -> Edit Config

手動安裝: 更改BepInEx\config\com.starfi5
