Great tools

I broke down and finally got this script. Very impressed with the tools here, especially the bridging and extra tools (chunks/grow structure/snow). Wasn't expecting those, and they work very well for quickly setting up some cool abstract stuff. This was well worth it.

For a fast workflow you can

For a fast workflow you can assign them to a hotkey, there are over 300 macroscripts that can be assigned...you also have the hotbox and 2 interfaces that are completely customisable... The interfaces are for easy access, and getting used to... you can just use the hotkeys no need for the interface. The price is really low for the amount of features, would you like me to break it up in parts and overall be more expensive !?

Всё это здорово конечно, но... All that's great, but ...

Но потом понимашеь, что визуальный интерфейс здорово тормозит рабочий процесс, это слишком бестолково. Ведь надо постоянно мышей дотягиваться до нужной кнопочки. А если надо много, много раз это делать. Короче если бы Rappa Tools был бы таким же набором скриптов как SoulBurn Scripts collection, которые можно было бы на горячие клавиши кинуть это было бы Useful. Да и дорого заломили цену 39€ - охуеть надо!

But then ponimashe that cool visual interface slows workflow, it's too stupid. One has to constantly reach for the right mouse buttons. And if you have many, many times to do it. In short if Rappa Tools would be the same set of scripts as SoulBurn Scripts collection, which could be on the hot key to throw it would be Useful. And expensive bent price 39 € - need be stunned!

Bridge tool

Hi Remus

I've found that the bridge tool is very slow, it's possible to fix this?

Thanks
