Individual parameters for schematics in a defined SET #2

Hey there mikeprimm

First of all i wanna tell you how amazing your schematicbrush plugin is. Its the most handy brush out there for terrain work and tree spreading :)

However there is just 1 thing i thats missing in this plugin, that would make it even handier. The feature that is missing or better said the feature that is missing for my personal use is a way to specify parameters on each schematic in a set.

All you can do with presets now is give them different weights and it would be alot nicer ifyou could actually give every tree you have their own preferences for example like their own y-offset or wether they should replace all or not.

Example scenario: We have quite a big custom tree repository on our server which are named and divied by Type-Size-Number. For example we want all of our big oak trees with roots to have individual y-offsets so they can be used correctly (roots sticking in ground). The problem ofcourse is, that the preset just takes the default "bottom" placement and you end up with trees laying on their roots which doesn't look good at all.

I hope you have comprehansion for my concern and consider adding this small but very handy feature.

Thanks in advance ravand

Sounds cool - I'm doing some work on a SchematicBrush update now (which will add support for using WorldPainter *.bo2 files, among other things), so I'll try to give this a look for inclusion in the next release.

Awesome appreciate your work mate

OK - here's what I've got in the dev builds: the schematic identifier can include a '^' to specify a Y offset for the specific matching schematic: so a set could have test1^2 and test2^4 to given the test1 schematic a Yoffset of +2 and given test2 a Yoffset of +4. Does that meet your needs?
