Selection none

Mirror

Copies the selection across the middle of the arena, reflected rather than just moved: a piece that has a left and a right comes out the other way round, so the two halves match. Pick another theme to make the far half a different colour. Point at this panel and the view shows where the copies will land. With spawn zones, capture flags or damage boxes selected, the second box offers the teams instead of the themes — a team is not a theme, and no themed pack holds any of the three.

Array

CountSpacing Across Up Deep

Spacing starts at the selection's own size, rounded to the nearest 25 cm, so copies sit flush. Widen it for gaps. Steps follow the object's own axes, so a turned piece arrays along its face. Set a count above 1 and the view shows where the copies will land.

Prefabs

A prefab is a piece of map kept on its own — a bunker, a doorway, a stack of crates — to drop into this map or any other. Export asks for a name and writes a .opsprefab file. Import brings one back under the cursor as a single group, which Shift+G breaks up like any other. Heights are kept, so what was built on the floor comes back on the floor.

Options

For a map that has been into a headset and back. Aligning it to a play area turns and shifts the whole thing, and it comes back square to nothing — so the arrow keys nudge across the grain and nothing new lines up with it. This works out the turn and the shift from the objects themselves and takes them back off, moving the map as one piece: every wall stays exactly where it was relative to every other. The play grid and any venue alignments come with it. Undo puts it back.

The ←→↑↓ keys nudge the selection the way the view is facing, a grid step at a time; Shift nudges up and down instead.

Left drag selects, middle drag orbits, right drag pans, Alt+left orbits. Shift adds to the selection, Ctrl picks a single object out of a group.

On a laptop with no mouse, switch the top bar to Trackpad: two fingers on the pad orbit, Shift+two fingers pan, Ctrl+two fingers zoom, and a two-finger tap is a right click. Left drag and Alt+left drag still do what they did.

The wheel zooms towards whatever the pointer is over, taking a share of the distance to it each notch: metres at a time across the arena, millimetres up against a crate. Point at something further off to cover ground again.

Preview, in the middle of the top bar, stands you in the map at six feet. The arrow keys walk, the mouse looks, C crouches to three feet and Esc brings you back to the view you left.

One gizmo does all three jobs: arrows move, the three coloured circles turn about X, Y and Z, the cubes scale, and the disc in the middle slides the selection across the view. Scaling holds the far side still, so a piece grows the way you pull it.
