the "measuring tool"

    to Devs

     

    I was thinking while counting the pixels/particles in between my creation and it took a long time to count!

    then I look if there was a measuring tool and, no, there is no "measuring  tool"

     

    so if the devs put a measuring  tool I will be happy

    If you mean amount of all pixels on screen, just press D on your keyboard. It will turn on detailed HUD which shows the amount.

    If you type tpt.setdebug(4) in the console, it will add some debug ruler measurements to line tool. So whenever you draw lines, you can measure it. This should be close enough to what you want.

    maybe someone could make this a lua script? or did someone already do it? i think so

    I had found one on the script manager: https://starcatcher.us/scripts/?view=180

    But it's difficult to use, tpt.setdebug(4) is better and doesn't require a Lua script.
