REPO-DropLaser-PrecisionMod

A precise object landing assistant for the game REPO.
Adds a customizable laser showing where your held object will land if dropped, helping you aim throws and drops more accurately.

Features

Adds a downward-pointing laser from your grabbed objects.
Helps visually predict where objects will land when dropped.
Optional ghost landing preview with modes:
- Never
- Only on cart
- Always
Customizable colors: match your beam color or define your own.
Fully configurable beam width, brightness, and range.
Ghost preview tuning: color, opacity, emission intensity, and update interval.
Auto-activation option: laser turns on automatically when grabbing an object.
Config migration support keeps prior settings on newer plugin schema versions.
Multiplayer compatible: laser is shown only for your local player.
Efficiently optimized for minimal performance impact.

Installation

Install BepInEx for REPO if you haven't already.
Download the latest release .zip from this repository or Thunderstore page.
Extract the .dll file into your BepInEx/plugins/ folder.
Launch REPO.
The landing laser system will now be available when grabbing objects.

Configuration

The mod automatically generates a config file at: REPO\BepInEx\config

You can customize:

Master Enable: Fully disable or enable the system.
Laser Toggle Key: Default is L, but you can assign any key.
Beam Colors:
- Use your grab beam's color automatically.
- Or override with a custom static color.
Laser Shape:
- Start and end widths.
- Laser max downward scan distance.
Laser Light:
- Glow brightness (intensity).
- Glow range.
Ghost Preview:
- Enable mode (never/on-cart/always).
- Use laser color or set a custom ghost color.
- Opacity and emission intensity.
- Update frame interval (performance vs smoothness).
Auto-Enable:
- Automatically turns the laser on when grabbing an object if you want.

How It Works

Dynamic Laser Control:
Laser only appears when you're holding something and can be toggled freely.
Precision Raycasting:
The laser scans downward, ignoring invisible cart barriers and non-physical triggers to accurately hit solid ground or surfaces.
Singleplayer and Multiplayer Handling:
In multiplayer, lasers are local to each client and don't interfere across players.
Auto Cleanup:
On scene changes, lasers are properly destroyed and reset to prevent duplication or errors.
