DR Feature Request: ASE Exporter, Enter Origin

[Dragofer]

The situation

The way the ASE exporter works now is that the model's origin is either in the middle or at the map's centre. So if you wanted to have the origin in a specific spot you'd have to move the model to the map's centre and align it on all 3 axis, every time the model is exported.

 

 

Suggested solutions

> I'd appreciate the functionality to type in the origin directly. This way the user can move the func_static's origin where it's needed, and then copy-paste the origin spawnarg into the exporter window. I think this would be the easiest option to implement and already on its own would be enough to make exporting ase much easier to handle.

 

> Another option could be that the exporter finds and uses the origin of the selection. This would be convenient for simple objects, although it would be less straightforward if there are multiple parts in the selection. In that case it might need to go for the most recently selected part.

The export plugin is just a .py file, you should be able to have a go at editing this your self.
