Changelog PZ Online Decoration Tool changes

1.1.3

10 October 2026
  • Removed the built-in tutorial entirely.
  • Replaced the slow local coordinate-map renderer with a fast PZmap.org reference workflow and coordinate paste helper.
  • Removed the Ground / Surface / OnTable controls and switched tabletop placement to automatic destination-based snapping.
  • Picking an object from a table no longer preserves the table-top height as the object's future placement reference.

1.1.2

10 October 2026
  • Replaced the coarse coordinate overview with a locally rendered top-view map based on map-square tile stacks.
  • Appliances and furniture-named tiles now take priority over conflicting Doors & Windows metadata in View Filters.
  • Aligned the Z-level dropdown and up/down controls.
  • Improved Picker recognition of imported multi-tile furniture by matching canonical tileset name and tile index.
  • Added explicit Ground, Surface, and OnTable placement modes below the rotation controls.
  • Hardened tutorial step 2 so Load PZ Location opens reliably before advancing.

1.1.1

10 October 2026
  • Reworked the coordinate map into a colored terrain overview with roads, vegetation, water, urban areas, and building footprints.

  • Added Z-level up/down buttons next to the existing Z dropdown.
  • Refined View Filters with separate Roads & Ground, Vegetation, and Fences & Railings categories.
  • Rectangle now shows the same semi-transparent placement preview while dragging.
  • Fixed repeated erasing of the same cell during a single drag stroke and added an exportable edit log for debugging.
  • Picker can now select a complete multi-tile furniture object from one of its component tiles.
  • Adjusted tutorial interaction and simplified tutorial wording.
