Mass Move Plugin

This unofficial TaleSpire allows you to select multiple mini at once (using single adds or mass selection) and then move all selected minis at once using any of the selected minis as the "leader". This plugins keeps the relative distances between minis and ignores all obstacles. So, for example, moving the leader through a door will likely cause the other selected minis to move through the wall around the door.

Future expansion to this plugin is expected which will implement a true follow the leader option.

Change Log

1.0.0: Initial release

Install

Use R2ModMan or similar installer to install this plugin.

Usage

There are two ways to select minis: single and mass. Each is discussed below.

Single select

1. Select the first mini as normal
2. To add minis to the selection, hold CTRL and select a mini.

There is currently no remove option (coming in future releases) and thus to remove selections, it is necessary to clear all selections (by selecting a single mini) and the re-adding the ones that are desired.

Mass selection

1. Select a mini (or multiple minis using the option above)
2. Hold the ALT key and select a mini

All minis in a rectangular region formed by the previously selected mini and the last select mini will be selected.

Note: The Windows convention for range is usually SHIFT but SHIFT does not work due to its existing use in core TS.

Movement

When selecting a mini to move you need to still be holding one of the modidifer keys (typically control) in order to not deselect the multi-selection. Holding control prevent a mini from being moved since it trips core TS height adjustment. To get around this:

1. Hold control and select the desired mini to move.
2. Release control.
3. Move the mini.

Once the mini is dropped, all other selected minis will update their position by the same change.
