Azkar, "gizmo tool"

Is there a tool like this where you could have multiple different points and have it spit out one length? Like it could zigzag with 10 anchor points and give you the shortest length of the line connecting them?

Doesn't seem to work for me. I can't move point A or B

Great tool, been looking for something to measure vertically on TTS, and you've done it - thanks!

@Fat Spiderman

I am pretty sure that if you hold down the right hotkeys, it measures how far you move a piece you just picked up.

@TevoTFM I'm not sure what you're speaking about.

Additionally, I'll be testing later but does the tool have collision? I hope to use this with Infinity: The Game as the soldiers use real space to determine distancing and Line of Fire

Any chance you could make a version that draws a vector line (similar to the ruler/line tool) between the two points instead of a resizing object?

OK I was able to get it to move, but the middle portion is not resizing.

The tool will not unlock for me allowing it to me moved or selected.

I had thought I had used it correctly. What I found is that there is a two tile feature that is way better, that I started using instead.

This is actually more trouble than it's worth, probably best to stick to using the gizmo tool.

You use the Gizmo tool to move the end points around, as mentioned in the mod description.

I could probably update the mod to disable the collider for the middle block entirely though, so this would no longer be necessary.

One of the things won't move and both of them are always locked.

How do I get it to move around? It is locked and wont unlock.

The way it works is the middle ruler block sends a raycast (a straight line) to the left and right of it to detect point A and point B. This is to distinguish the tools if you want to use more than one.

If you want to use it in another save, you have to load the mod, box select all three pieces and either make them persistent and load the mod back up or save the selection as one item in your Saved Objects and drag it in wherever you need a ruler.

Getting an error when bringing the middle part in, claims point A&B cannot be found, despite them being on the table?

This is so cool.... Awesome job!

@Sparkshard The tab tool only works well on the table surface. This tool lets you measure anywhere in the game from point A to point B, allowing you to easily measure vertically and at odd angles.

Isnt there a ruler tool
