Features

All existing Torque3D editors feature

TorqueLab include all stock T3D editors features are packed into installable modules (Except the WorldEditor which is replaced by required TorqueLab Scene Editor). Most of the stock editors also have an "improved" version module which use the benefits of TorqueLab, you can find more informations about those below.

New Scene Editor with more power

The TorqueLab Scene Editor replace the stock "World Editor" with more power and flexibility. It's the core of TorqueLab mostly and it required by most plugins as they use the Scene Editor centralized helpers to handle objects.

Customizable User Interface

The UI system as been reworked to allow more control to the user to customize the interface as they like.

• Drag'n Drop Toolbars : Simply reorganise the toolbar icons by dragging them to the position you want. Drag to the "disabled zone" to remove it from the bar (You can add it back by dragging it out of the "Disabled Bin"
• Customizable Layout : The Layout can be easily adapted to the user liking by choosing from one of the base layout:
• Docking Side Panels - One panel on each side with custom width
• Floating Panels : Similar to stock Torque3D editors with moveable panels.
• More in future version...
• Dark Theme by suncaller if you like it dark

Plugin Development Docs Modular System TorqueLab is built to make it simple for anyone to develop new modules if they stick to some predefined rules. For more informations, visit the documentation which provide guides to develop different types of modules.

There's no such guide available yet, they would be written once TorqueLab goes to Beta development stage
