Module dragging

Simple demonstration video

  • Selected modules can be moved at once by dragging them to desired location and dropping.

  • Selected modules can be duplicated by dragging and holding left ctrl when releasing the drag.

  • Modules can be dragged to disconnected positions, but the ship has to be in one piece to exit editing.

  • Note: Active origin (core) module can't be replaced or deleted by dragging other modules over it.

  • Core and thruster modules can be moved by dragging as well.
