Works wonderfully, many thanks!

One thing I might suggest for weapon slots (and in the future, engine slots) is having the ability to mirror them. Say a weapon is located at (35,10) with an angle of 90. If the user presses a button, then a new weapon slot will be created at (35,-10) with an angle of -90, keeping the same arc as the parent. Doesn't sound like it would be that hard to add in, and it would save people who are making symmetrical ships potentially a lot of time.

Oh, and I almost forgot: when you export the ship data, all the weapon slots have the same ID of WS 001. While this wasn't a problem as I had to renumber them after copy-pasting all the weapon data to mirror them anyway, if you choose to include the mirroring functionality, having weapon slots ID'd correctly would be pretty important.

Again, thanks for this awesome utility.

Hey, good suggestions. The weapon ID stuff was definitely planned (string editing), and mirrored editing should be relatively easy (I already implemented mirrored mode for bounds coordinates).

Not sure if I'll be able to get to it this weekend though, but if that's the case probably next weekend.

Version 1.0 released; halting further development for now to work on mods, except for bugfixes, unless there is wild & rampant demand.

hmm yes very nice... the only thing that kinda annoys me is that it zooms in way to close or way to far. I can't really get a zoom that I find comfortable.

Trylobot, I love you.

A way to mirror weapons would still be lovely, though.

I have to admit, it takes some time to learn all the shortkeys, but once you figure them all, this editor is so much better than redbulls (atleast for me :D)
