v1.1.0 — Visual Feedback & Color-Based Merging

Overview

• Complete overhaul of the slicing feedback system — players can now visually verify the split result before committing, with color-coded components indicating how the physical structure will be divided.

New Features

• Intelligent Split Detection — after selecting a region, the knife automatically detects all disconnected components within the target physical structure (based on relative coordinate offsets) and displays them as separate color-coded groups

• Dynamic Hue Distribution — detected components are assigned colors evenly distributed across the hue spectrum, making it easy to distinguish individual parts at a glance; the selected region remains highlighted in deep red as the visual anchor

• Color Switching & Selection Merging — right-click any colored component to cycle its color; changing a component's color to deep red merges it into the selected region, allowing you to control exactly how many pieces the structure splits into (e.g., turning one side red reduces a 3-part split into 2 parts)

Improvements

• Post-selection coloring now supports interactive color switching — adjust grouping directly on the fly without re-selecting

• Enhanced visual clarity during the selection phase, making it easier to plan multi-part splits

• Color assignment respects the player's original selection anchor (deep red) as the reference point for all other components
