Extended Placement Hotkeys

Description
Extended Placement Hotkeys improves on the 3D placement tool, allowing precice control for moving and rotating objects with keys. Move objects up and down while placing objects in the world.

  • Full 3D Control: move and rotate objects on all axis using customizable hotkeys for precise placement, put objects exactly where you want them to be.
  • World Vertical Placement: raise or lower objects while placing them in the world.
  • Copy and Paste: quickly duplicate the exact position and rotation of one object onto another with added buttons in the UI.
  • Placement Presets: save any object's position as a preset to quickly re-apply to other objects, for consistent, repeatable placement.
  • Objects Stay Put: once you place an object, it remains exactly where you set it - even if you move or remove other objects nearby.
  • Customizable Hotkeys: set up your preferred keybinds for movement and rotation in mod options. Use single keys or a combination modifier for total control and customization.

Notes on the preset function:
  • If you have multiple placement windows open, new presets will not appear immediately. Close and reopen the placement UI to refresh the list.
  • Presets are persistent for the current save only and will not carry over to other worlds or saves.

Default Keys:
  • Z = Z Axis (up and down)
  • X = X Axis (left and right)
  • Y = Y Axis (back and forth)
  • CTRL = rotate, combine with X, Y and Z
  • SHIFT = inverse movement or rotation, combine with X, Y and Z

No known conflicts. Can be added mid-save and removed without issues.

Ask and you shall recieve, thank you for the suggestions CleverBoy! I've added in:
- Copy and paste functions to immediately duplicate the position/rotation of the object, to another object
- Placement presets to save and apply object positions
- Expanded key binding options, you can now set it to either single keys or a combination

(Default keybinds remain the same, but this should allow you to work with the numpad better. Let me know if it still doesn't suit you and I'll make some adjustments).

i like runyoucleverboy's ideia, put on numpad all move and save presets
RunYouCleverBoy 21 Jun @ 8:46am 
hello. thats great. can u add controls such for numpad (like not hold shift but use 4 and 6 for left and right, 7 and 9 for up and down, 8 and 2 for further and closer and some key for rotating like now)
i am asking for control settings but not the hardcoded keys which i exampled.
it always would be great if someone add the control wheels and arrow like in 3d modelling programs to drag them
RunYouCleverBoy 21 Jun @ 7:46am 
and if u started doing "placing" better there will be a great abilty to remember last rotation in "extended placing menu" (or copy-paste - if i wanna make stake of logs (to not move Z level again for each log)
