Resizable, Recolorable Cards with Text!

Description
These are cards that allow text to be added to them.

Usage:
1. Save either the bag or the card to the chest.
2. Put the card into any scripting zone to edit, you can make them using Zone / Scripting. Take it out and editing controls will disappear, and the card will be uneditable.

After resizing cards, simply update the card in any way, pushing any of the buttons or interacting with the textbox. This is because in order for actions like this to occur in realtime, it has to be checked every physics tick (about 90ms), this would be quite performance reducing.

Colors are chosen via hex color codes, to get them, either open up the color picker for the vector paint tool, or color tint any object, when the color picker appears, choose your color, then copy the field labled #: then paste the code into the coresponding input. There are also plenty of websites that will spit out these codes.

BBcode is very useful for customizing these, as multiple text colors and sizes aren't availiable for text boxes.

Fantastic tool for prototyping! Wish there was a way the change the card texture, as in the border + back

I am impressed with the work done. Truly the best card in the workshop. I have been using it for more than a year in various games, but, unfortunately, when cards are placed on top of each other or any other object, the text breaks. The fix of the back part of the card also breaks, because of this bug you have to create a new card!!! I would be happy if these infuriating bugs were fixed, but I understand that this is very difficult. :steamhappy:

That is accomplished by simply resizing the card using the Gizmo's tool's scaling features:

1. Select the Gizmo tool group (Which is just below the Text tool group, Shortcut is F8).
2. Select the Volume Scale tool (It's the one with the box with arrows coming out of it)
3. Select the card by clicking at the grey edge of it.
4. Grab the red and blue handles on the edge of the card.
5. Change tools to allow the card to update.

If that description is as confusing as I think it is, I've provided a quick GIF of the process:

How did you get the card and text in landscape like in that last picture?

@mojomonkey - Thanks for your dedication and resopons. Did not realize that it was fixable even, other editable cards have the same problem. Thanks!

Wow, I really forgot about this mod didn't I? I kind of got burned out working on it as I was ever so slightly tired of trying to figure out how to fix some of it's issues. But I suppose now's the best time (if any) to update this thing, it's been about a year and 15 days since I posted this mod. I'm gonna be rolling a sort of "Anniversary Update" out real soon.

As for images, I don't think I can do that. (Unless maybe if I use some of that weird XML magic), I suppose you could use the decals system that was added to TTS.

The decals system seems to have weird behavior unless you look at the card from top down though.

I didn't quite realize that the text doesn't appear when you are in top down mode, I have fixed that and will add that to this new version I'm working on.

Best editable card I've seen; able to lock and in contrast to other option, the text does not appear at certain angles.

As L noted, would be really nice if it was always dragging in locked form.

Would also be fantastic if there was an option to add images.

It's cool, but isn't it annoying when you want to pick up the card and it selects the text all the time instead?
