[h2]Workshop SDK: Mover Tools[/h2] We've got even more things to show off with the Mover Tools this week! [h3]Pause[/h3] You can now pause all movers so you can adjust the items, then resume the movers. This is an admin button that requires the surface/IO permission to use. [previewyoutube=0GTEa5YRjp8;full][/previewyoutube] [h3]Face Towards[/h3] Mover "Face Towards" feature completed. This is a rotation mode all movers have that will make the mover face towards another item. [previewyoutube=vaPFkEYArZE;full][/previewyoutube] [h3]I/O GOTO Input[/h3] It'll travel to any relative position from where the mover item is placed. [previewyoutube=snuaGi97R8U;full][/previewyoutube] [h3]Movers Misc[/h3] In anticipation for the Mover Train item: A new Coaster Seat item that comes with a few settings. [previewyoutube=VFjiulgOc0A;full][/previewyoutube] You can now export and import spline data, which will be useful if you want to share spline paths with other players or to back them up.

[h3]Location Volume[/h3] This is a new volume that comes with various permission settings and a way to label locations in your Condo. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11783817/714c38a1eb0df7f9a6f67642b5415972b6875d83.png[/img] [h3]Condo I/O Debugger[/h3] We made a new IO debugger tool. It's basic at the moment, but still very useful. You can now simulate Inputs and Outputs directly from the item edit menu. This will help assist you in figuring out the flow of your IO, such as testing if your OnOpen works, or what happens when a relay is called by a button - without the need of setting up buttons.

We also added more admin control over individual media players. [previewyoutube=pHKhfXxVbts;full][/previewyoutube] [h3]Particle / FX Selector[/h3] Will come with a bunch of particle FX. Has Condo IO support for Playing and Stopping FX. IO inputs will be compatible with the existing FX items as well.
