- except for saving the state of charli's window
? see: https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/11781 - GROUP CHANGES
added button to disable local shadow casting from lights
- will also disable contact shadows - UI CHANGES
removed save group preset button from the grouplist, to make room for the shadow casting toggle
? i don't think it's much used there
? still exist in the individual group if needed
reduced the overall window sizes
- also trimmed down many elements to fit in
? less scrolling means faster access to everything ;-)
removed the automatic side flipping of the addon window
? annoy's sometimes!
added fancy animation at the credits page
- CORE CHANGES

Version 2.2
- CORE CHANGES
reworked the internal queue system to be more robust
- added "wait for creation" so a newly created can only be used if all spawns present
- added "wait for destruction" to make sure everything is despawned before a group gets finally deleted
- added new group flag that indicates that it can be drawn on the UI
- added new group flag that indicates that a group is broken (failed spawn/destroy)
* should avoid any timing issue, when spawning or destroying groups
* after 10 cycles and no change, a group is marked as broken and the job gets deleted
* broken groups will show up in the grouplist (disabled), but not as tab (will also count towards the max of groups present)
? reloading mods will fix this, but not the broken spawns
added database layer to manage presets and permanent settings
added the ability to toggle developer features (ripped from my own mod, haha)
added persistent settings, which apply on startup
? for now its just "hide secondary window", the "rotation tracking" toggle and "hide scrollbar"
fixed small bug, where meshes are not hidden while duplicating a group with hidden meshes
fixed small bug, where despawning an entity cleared the entry and the queue couldn't check if its destroyed
fixed a bug where groups are still present in the UI after returning to the main menu and load another save
fixed a bug where groups are still counted as present when loading another save inside the world
fixed a bug where the newly added vertical focus did not target correctly V
fixed a rare crash bug, when the secondary window is being closed via X
added check if the .archive file is present, if not it shows a message on the UI - GROUP CHANGES
reduced the radius slider range to 0.5 - 3.5 (previously up to 5.0)
? so it's hassle free in close range to get a exact distance
changed the radius multiplier to a max of 25.0 (previously 10.0)
? so it's possible to reach about ~90m / ~280ft if needed
changed the convergence to be an percentage aka 0 - 100%
? this is much clearer, as the maximum convergence autoscales with the groupsize anyways
reduced the light range slider to 0.5 - 25.0 (previously up to 50.0) for more precision
reduced the light range multiplier to 25.0 (previously 100), you can still reach 600+ meters if needed
expanded the position offset XY to -10.0 - +10.0 (previously -5 - + 5)
expanded the position offset Z to -5.0 - +15.0 (previously -2.5 - + 7.5)
detached groups are no longer affected by the master controls, so they are fully independent
* once detached, they will adjust to the group properties
* reattaching reapply the master values, if any
most sliders now have a reset button, to make it easy returning to the defaults
+ also added the correct units to many sliders
added new section to groups called specials
? home for the offset compensation and "Party Time"
added offset compensation, which allow to always target V when working with offsets
- spotlights offer horizontal and vertical, while all other lights are limited to horizontal
- works with detached groups for a maximum of freedom and no matter how far away it is
- also added vertical alignment slider with a default of 1.5m, because the zero point of V are the feet
added "Party Time" that does animate the angles and colors of spawned objects
* will disable angle/color controls of the group and can be mixed with the offset compensation
* everything else stays adjiustable, for the perfect party light ^^
- added speed sliders for adjusting the rotation and color change speeds
- added toogle to "freeze" the rotation and the color change
? duplicating a "party" group works fine - UI CHANGES
adjusted spacing between group buttons, due the new addition
added preset tab to the addon window
added settings tab to the addon window
- added toggle to hide the scrollbar (the UI will adjust to it)
- added toggle to disable rotation tracking (so the ring always looks at the zero point, unless rotated)
rewrote the "QuickShift" button, which already appeared in v1.1
* now works no matter where you click (for you Cy!)
* supports a word wrapping description
slider titles now support a description
slider titles also now support a button or a minimized quickshift
readded the "destroy all" button below the grouplist
added the "save setup" button below the grouplist
* will be disabled if no active group is present to be saved
designed new buttons for the preset tab that are much better readable (Load, Delete, Export)
* Export stays disabled until implemented in a future update
* iconized group buttons stay as they are
made the windows slightly less transparent
- also the main window is more transparent when collapsed
- adjusted the overall colors slightly, to be in line with the new buttondesign
- replaced the spawnbuttons with the new ones
added section to toggle some useful developer features aka ini settings
- maybe expanded in the future, for now its my preference
reworked the sliders, as they didn't scale correctly when the scrollbar is hidden
- also the drag slider, as they had the same issue
added some chaching for the UI math, to stay fluid
- maybe expanded in the future - MASTER CHANGES
changed the radius slider to an adjustable value (instead of additive)
* if a group has smaller radius than the minimum of 0.5m it is forced to this minimum
* also changed adjustable range to -1.5m - +1.5m (previously a flat 0-5 addition)
changed the master convergence slider
* its now a adjustable slider with positive and negative value
* its also now a percentage -100% to +100% based on the used convergence of the group
* the exception for groups with just 1 light stays intact
? if you dont use the convergence in a group, this slider has no effect
? with this method, all groups can be handled equally
changed the light intensity slider
* like the convergence its now a percentage -100% to +100% based on the used intensity of the group
* except independent detached groups
? so its possible to adjust all groups equally, no matter how "intense" they are
master position offsets now have the same ranges like the group ones
master sliders also have now a reset button like the group counterparts - PRESETS
added save group button to the group controls
* is disabled while a group is inactive
added save prompt, which appears when you hit the save button
* will lockdown everything else on the UI, to avoid any issues
* presets can be named with up to 20 characters
* minimum name are 5 characters
* save button is disabled when the presetname already exist (split between group/setup presets)
* invalid characters will also disable the save button
- fixed small scaling bug
added ability to save and load single groups
added ability to save and load entire setups including the master slider settings
* you can load presets as many as you want, aslong the max of 10 groups is not exceeded
* preset load buttons are disabled when there are more groups inside the preset as available tab spots

Version 2.1
- CORE CHANGES
added rotation tracking for the player puppet
* groups rotate with the player in the world and photomode
* detached groups will stick to the last known direction
changed spawnable group sizes to 1,2,4,6,8,10 (instead of 1,2,4,8,16) - OPTIMIZATIONS
slightly optimized position tracking, to avoid unnecessary updates
optimized glyph painting, less logic, less overhead
optimized and reduced the number of color calls
reworked some elements to be more efficient - MISCELLANEOUS

- * has its own tabbar for categorized spawnable objects
- ? makes it possible to spawn groups without the need to switch tabs
- scaling is now based on cet/imgui fontsize
