Improved Playtest

Are you annoyed that game always teleports you to your icon and forces camera zoom and position during playtesting?

Then this mod is exactly what you need!

Features

  • Static camera - keep the camera static during playtesting
  • Static zoom - keep the zoom during playtesting
  • Static rotation - ignore camera rotation during playtesting
  • Show camera edges - display the original camera bounds when using any of the options above
  • Pan and zoom during playtest (PC only) - freely pan and zoom using the mouse middle click and scroll wheel*

Bugfixes

  • Fixed RobTop's bug where the camera malfunctions when starting playtest from a start position with any camera triggers placed before it.

How to use

  • To enable/disable the mod, use the 'Improved Playtest' checkbox on the left side of the editor pause menu
  • Press the '+' button to toggle individual features
  • Or use F7 shortcut

*I'm currently looking for someone to help with the implementation of the 'Middle click panning' on MacOS
