The VFR Autogen Addon site now has the latest build of my program - version 1.0.32. This version has a new requested feature that saves any house objects in random order. Seems if you save them as you create them and FS decides not to show them all because of autogen settings or simply the maximum number being reached, that it takes away from the start of the list. If you're like me, you add one section at a time and that results in empty areas if FS excludes a range of numbers. By randomizing their position in the file, it'll pick out some from each area of the screen and look much better. At least that's the plan.
Another feature added is the ability to plop down an object or a set of multiple objects with one of the program's tools, press a new button marked "Last Object Copy". Until the feature is turned off, a left mouse button press on the image places a copy of the object or objects on the screen at the position of the mouse click. I found that my multi-object controls worked really well when creating houses in nice, tightly-packed housing developments but in rural areas where the houses are far apart but all similarly sized, I found myself having to draw lots of tiny boxes. Now I can draw one tiny box, press the button, and place clones of that house whereever I desire with a single button.
Enjoy,
