Better Placement

Better placement of 3D items in world

Inspired by the House Decoration Tool from Ultima Online that allowed a lot of flexibility in decorating houses.

Lets you adjust the Z level of 3D models while in placement mode, allowing finer control over where on screen items visually are.
It functions much like the Rotate key but allows moving an item up or down in a fine-grained manner so you can adjust exactly where on the bookshelf your items sit.

-- Key binds / Controls --

Adds two new configurable keybinds for Adjust Height and Reset Height. You'll also see them on the lower-right prompt while placing items in case you forgot. Keybinds can be changed in rhe usual Keybinds Options menu.

Default for Adjust Height Up: 'Z'
Default for Adjust Height Down: 'Shift-Z'
Default for Reset Height Adjustment: 'X'

Currently there's no Joypad/Controller specific support, looking into it though.

-- Known Issues --

- Some actions like installing/removing furniture cause placed items to be re-positioned on the tile, you can just pick them up and move them around again however.
- It's possible to put items visually on a different tile from the tile they're actually on. The item won't be on the tile that it's visually sitting on so don't go too far up/down with the adjustment, it's still accessible from the tile it was originally placed on however.

-- Compatibility --

I don't think any other mod has seriously touched the Place3DItemCursor so it /should/ be compatible with most mods unless they also change 3D placement.

It should work in multiplayer but I haven't had the opportunity to test it, please comment with information if you find a bug or issue!

Fine to add or remove mid-save, items should stay where they were last placed until something disturbs them.
