What does it do?
If you are unfamiliar with what a 3D cursor is, the best way I can explain it, is that it is a saved position where you can move parts, unions, and models to.
How can I use it?
Context Menu
Tutorial Videos
Cursor To Selection
This will bring the 3D cursor to whatever* you have selected. See Limitations*

Selection To Cursor (Keep Offset)
If you have selected multiple objects, all objects will be moved to the 3D cursor keeping their original distance away from the middle of the selection.
Selection To Cursor
This will bring all the objects you have selected to the 3D Cursor.
Keeps rotation

Works with changing pivot point
Cursor To World Origin
Brings the cursor to position x = 0, y = 0, z = 0 in case you may lose it.
Pivot To Cursor **NEW**
Pivot To Cursor allows you to move the pivot point of the part to the 3D cursor. There are tons of scenarios where this could be extremely helpful.
Selection To Active **NEW**
Selection To Active takes all the parts in your selection and moves them to the last part that you selected.
- Currently, you are unable to move attachments with the 3D Cursor.
- The cursor also does not support rotating your selection to the 3D cursor; your selected objects will still keep their rotation.
- The cursor position is based on the exact middle; unlike what Roblox uses, they use the bounding box.
- If you sometimes have the issue of the Context Menu not showing up it could be due to not being in the viewport which is the game screen where you are building. Due to Roblox’s limitations you can only use keybinds when in the viewport
Found a bug?
If you have found any bugs, contact me at (Crushmero / Crushmero#0001) or post a reply. Please include a picture of the error or an image of the bug, preferably with steps for me to reproduce it.
Known bugs
- Roblox sinks some of the number input when using the main numbers on your keyboard
- this results in some menu options not being available using the main numbers,
- number-pad DOES WORK as Roblox isn't using those for any keybinds.
- Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to make it so that SHIFT+S works as a
- keybind due to Roblox Constraints *Unless I'm missing something* but I
- I would have to override studio movement, *S* is the backwards key
- There is an issue when focusing on a text box in the Color Picker menu, and
- dragging across to the wheel, it will lock the mouse to the wheel, the trade off
- for fixing this would be to remove the ability to move the mouse past the
- extents of the circle, or the widget itself.

@PasantoThrime - Helped me a lot with finding bugs.
or in the updated imagery, I really need to have an announcement thing in the plugin to talk about this kind of stuff, but I wanted to get it working ASAP for now.
