Announcing Collision Groups Editor

[RoyallyFlushed (Royal)]

Super! I was actually thinking about asking for something like this the other day. This will actually give me a reason to use collision groups.

It shipped with Dark Theme support.

This doesn’t seem to scale very well. I only have 7 custom collision groups and the widget takes up the whole viewport on my 1080p monitor:

It would be nice if the layout mirrored the Tag Editor plugin:

In short:

• List layout by default which allows me to easily set collision group (as that’s what I’ll mainly be doing with the plugin)
  • Also allows it to nicely dock in same group as existing widgets
• Collision grid not always visible (for the most part I only change this when I create a collision group, so I rarely use this relative to setting the collision group of a part)
  • Can be opened by clicking a “Edit collision groups” button at the bottom of the widget or something. Opens a second widget since it probably won’t fit in the list’s widget without being extremely inconvenient to use
  • Maybe make a little more compact. There’s an abundance of whitespace and while it’s good to have the checkbox elements large, they might be a big too large
  • Add border/grid lines to collision grid so I don’t lose my place

Also, I agree with some of the UX concerns brought up previously.

• Clicking a collision group should set selected parts’ collision groups to that collision group (this is my #1 use case for the plugin, so it should be front and center)
• Selecting all parts in a collision group should be a sub-option somewhere (I rarely, if ever, would use this)

Finally, WRT to selecting parts in a collision group:

• If I click “Default” by accident or unknowingly, I freeze Studio because it selects tens of thousands of parts at once
• It can be difficult to find anything of value because components are hidden behind terrain/other objects
• It can be difficult to find anything of value if thousands of parts are selected at once
• Ideally I’d just be able to use the existing explorer filter to find these parts, but the next best option is for “select all parts” to be converted to a part explorer. Will need to page results with infinite scrolling so loading a list for groups like Default don’t freeze Studio
  • This addresses previous problems because I can select individual parts and press F to zoom to them, and single out important parts from the list instead of looking in the viewport

Still no scroll window :c

My Collision Groups Editor

Intro Hello everyone. Collision groups can be rather tedious to script in and control or adjust quickly. There have been some plugins made to try to remedy this, but I didn’t like either. So I spent a few hours and made my own! Here’s the plugin: Hopefully you guys can get some use out of it. Here’s a little preview [image] Features: An actual scrolling frame A gui base that doesn’t require you to resize your entire window to see two collision groups Widget! You can resize and …

Hello there! Sorry to drag up this thread again but, is there a way to clone a game’s collision groups into another game quickly?

I have a number of groups set up and I’d hate to have to create each one tediously again.

Thanks!
