Lets start with that the new Hierarchy features they added recently with being able to manipulate object and containers within the Hierarchy is great so far, and has really helped me guide myself through the basics and beginnings of Rooms 2. But as I have been making small things with Rooms 2 to teach myself how its different compared to Rooms 1 and how I can use that power to my advantage, I have realized there are a few features that would be quite nice.
Search Function
It would be great to have a search function on the Hierarchy as sometimes it does get a little hard to manage all the containers and objects in the room.
Circuit Support
As a person that does circuits, I sometimes have problems finding chips in circuits that others have made, or that I haven’t touched/worked on in a while.
It would be great to be able to see circuits in the Hierarchy to pinpoint where they are and be able to select is and look for the selected chip instead. Along with this maybe support for custom chips like the custom circuit boards would be good.
(Maybe there could be a “Circuit Mode” or a filter to turn circuits on and off so builders don’t need to see circuits in the hierarchy all the time.)
Object Settings
With the Hierarchy it’s easy to manage lots of objects, but then once you click on the object you haft to go manually find it, what if all you had to do was right click, or press a settings button on the object. I present that we add a settings button (and a right click button for pc users) that opens up a little pop up menu in the maker pen that has buttons to do quick actions such as configure (opens the configure menu for the object), delete (deletes the object), rename (would be a new place to rename the object), and other feature like those.
Now it would make managing object way easier because all you haft to do is just right click and delete or configure the object instead of physically finding it.
(This would so go along with the circuit idea pretty well to make managing Circuits easier.)
Hierarchy Teleport
When managing objects in the Hierarchy sometimes you need to manually find it because you need to edit something physical/visual about it. Maybe having a teleport feature to teleport to the object would make it easier to find the object you need as it would just teleport you to it. Maybe you double click the object, or you select teleport from the pop up menu idea that I mentioned a bit ago.
I know this is a lot of ideas for the Hierarchy and it would take a good amount of time to implement, but I feel like these would improve the work flow or screen and vr users in Rooms 2.
Thanks for reading to the end.
