Gizmo Buddy - Table Setup Assistant

Description
UDATE:
The devs have improved the gizmo tools, so this guy doesn't serve much of a purpose anymore. You can do the same things with more ease of use in TTS without any mods now! =)

What is it?
This is a tool to help players in setting up their tables. Used in combination with the Gizmo tool, this allows you to have exact control over position, rotation and scale of any object on the table.

How does it do that?
It allows you to control the X/Y/Z of the position/rotation/scale elements in several ways.
  • + and - buttons: Allows you to add/subtract to/from relevant X/Y/Z values. 0.1 and 0.5.
  • Type In Single Value: Type a number into the description and then click a display for X/Y/Z on Pos/Rot/Scale and it will set the item to that position.
  • Type in Multiple Values: Typing 3 numbers, separated by commas, and clicking the "Set" button beneath position/rotation/scale will set the relevant element to match those numbers. If you know exactly how you want it, this is a quick and easy way to place/rotate/scale something.

Other Features?
But that isn't all it is good for. I mean, it mostly is. BUT NOT ALL!
  • Help Button: Click "?" at any time for a full list of instructions, printed to chat.
  • Error Messages: Do you suck? Well, Gizmo Buddy sure thinks so and he will just not shut up about it. Broadcast style.
  • Vital Data Display: As you move/place items, this tool prints its position/rotation/scale to the displays, rounded neatly. This is useful data to have when trying to place items exactly. Plus it allows for you to easily nudge things into place with the controls.
  • Customizable: Don't like how many numbers the displays round to? Don't like that it highlights the selected item on the table? Don't like my face? Well, most of that can be changed with simple variable edits at the head of the script.
That is about it. If you run into any bugs or unexpected behavior, please strive to re-create it and let me know what caused it to happen. I'll be sure to draft a fix for it.

Now go make something!

Seems the devs liked this mod too.

I think that would be a pretty cool tool too

I wonder if you could make a tile layer? It would be really cool for it to basically be a scripted infinite bag that can spawn two tokens. You put the tile you want to use in the infinite bag, and place the two tokens on the board at opposite corners of the square/ rectangle you want to fill, and hit a button. It should then spawn the selected tile, lay them perfectly, and lock them down. Maybe have two extra toggle buttons, one to make it only lay an outline, and one to change it from a square to a circle, with one token being the center, and the other being the radius. That would cut dungeon building time WAY down.
