Sets: save a selection under a name and place it again anywhere, on any map.
- The library gets an OBJECTS / SETS switch. SETS saves the selected
objects as a set and lists the saved sets to place or delete (Delete asks
for a second press).
- A set is a park file in <profile>/object_sets/<name>.park.json, so it
shares the park format, its 2 MB limit and its name rules. Positions are
relative to the set's anchor: the middle of its footprint, at its lowest
origin.
- Placing follows the cursor as one wire cube per object, on surfaces or
the grid plane; the mouse wheel turns it by the angle step. A click
pastes the whole set: one undo step, under the paste path's object and
session limits. Sets with objects missing from the catalog cannot be
placed.
- A placed or pasted group is then selected with the move gizmo.
Editing groups:
- Local axes work for multi-selections. A placed set's axes are the
rotation it was placed with, plus every later turn; any other group uses
its last selected object's rotation. Applying a moved group does not snap
its own rotation to the angle grid.
- Duplicate (button or Ctrl+D) copies every selected object at its saved
position, rotation and scale, one grid step along X, as one paste.
- On a server with object scaling off, pastes (sets, duplicates, Ctrl+V)
are made at 1x.
Tests cover set storage (anchor, round trip, replace, names, damaged files,
delete), saving and placing a set through the UI (surface, wheel, one
paste, no live preview), selecting it with its own axes, moving it along
them, and duplicating with and without scaling.

Server: object scaling can be turned off
A dedicated server can stop players resizing the objects they place.
- "allow_object_scaling" in the config's "players" section (default true),
and "object-scaling on|off" from the console or an admin. A change is
saved and applies at once.
- Off: the server shares every player's objects at their own size, whatever
that player's game sent. Admins can still resize theirs, as with the
object limit.
- The roster tells each game. In the park editor of a player on such a
server the SCALE mode is not offered, its Y shortcut does nothing, the
scale box is disabled with a note saying why, and what is placed or edited
is its own size.
- An object resized before the setting was turned off is its own size for
everyone else straight away; its owner sees it resized until they edit it.
