Hey Jeremy, I've got a small request.
Right now if I want to move a mesh or the whole craft, I use the move function. Changing coordinates in the Info tab it doesn't seem to update all the relevant fields like Hitzone Span/min/max

In the "Move" window, there are only fields for move by a number of units or meters. Could you add a set of files to move to a certain set of coordinates
Also, if that was possible, which mesh would be taken for reference for the coordinates?
- The center of the first one selectted
- The center of the last one selected
- Or the center of the selection?

Alternative could you add a field with the position coordinates to the Info Tab, which, if altered also updates all the hitzone/HP coordinates?

Hello,
There are two version of the Move dialog.
If only one mesh is selected then you can define a move delta or a position related to the hitzone center.
If more meshes are selected then you can only define a move delta. The problem as you've noticed is which center to use.

Thank you!
Special feature request. Similar to Optech's texture stitching, could an editing feature be available in XwaOptEditor where the user could select a given x,y pixel coordinate within a texture and map it to a specific vertice of a face from a given mesh ? (A precision approach for remapping textures).
