  Track Builder Quality of Life Update!

  A new Track builder update is here! This one completely overhauls the gizmo tool to make building much more efficient. Along with the new gizmo we also added some of the most requested features! New Features-Complete revamp of the gizmo movement tool. This new gizmo feels more 1 to 1 in terms of moving objects around when building, allowing for smoother building and more precise placement in move & rotate, especially when building with snapping disabled.-Box select is now possible, holding CTRL and marking an area of objects will select them all for gizmo movement.-Added multi-duplicate using alt-drag, for duplicating multiple objects at once.-Gizmo movement & rotations of any object can now be undone using CTRL-Z, alongside undo placement & delete.-Added a ‘total placed objects’ counter in the UI.-Holding shift while rotating a held object now reverses its rotation direction.-Delete key now deletes any number of selected objects.Bug Fixes/Other-Fixed a bug where multiple cars could be spawned at once during playtesting a track.-Added a setting to toggle chromatic aberration in video settings. Hope you enjoy the new tools and please leave any feedback for future updates! Next focus for the track building system is bringing back the leaderboards & ghosts system for workshop tracks, so stay tuned for that!
