Hello everyone

Here is a new plugin called "Symmetry". It was made especially for Battle and Royal maps. All you need is to create a part of your map and the other part(s) of the map will be automatically synchronized each time you place a new block.

This idea came to me from another game that have a similar tool. A plugin like this already exists but isn't up to date anymore. See Auto Symmetry by CroissantNinja


At the left : the plugin panel
At the bottom (Red rectangular) : Icon & checkbox for enabling, disabling the plugin / the panel

Features

• 4 symmetry modes : (Half reflection, Quarter reflection, Half rotation, Quarter rotation)
• Ability to choose the size of the map : Odd / Even X and Z Size map
• All ShootMania blocs supported
• Terraforming is, of course, supported
• Air mapping supported

What's the difference between Reflection & Rotation

How to install ?
Place the script Symmetry.Script.txt in the folder :
C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\ManiaPlanet\Scripts\EditorPlugins\ShootMania

Symmetry is still limited
Unfortunately, Symmetry is too limited. There are many functionnality missing in ManiaScript so I can't support everything.
- Items (Yellow and Blue crystals) are not supported (Missing functionnality in ManiaScript)
- Macroblocks are not supported (Impossible)
- OffZone is not supported (Missing functionnality in ManiaScript)
- GhostBlocks are not supported (Functionnality doesn't work properly)

I'm sorry to deliver a half-finished plugin but I can't do more at the moment. Hopefully this plugin will be helpful for simple projects.

Thank You! This is very cool!

OMG

This is an awesome plugin idea! I'll create Royal maps 4x faster!
You made my day!

aaah yes !
This is awesome <3

Thank you fix, Nerpson & Hype

I had doubt about relasing this plugin. There are so much functionalities missing (And a small bug i'm trying to fix ). It's really comforting to see your messages .

I'll still prefer using copy paste tool (because I'm placing a lot of items for my title), but this plugin is really nice addition to the editor. Good work!

Edit: topkek for using both cursor coords and Essentials

Looks very interesting, great job
