    yo this is sick, brush speed should be able to go faster and length should be able to go smaller too though

    Will do that!, I was tweaking that today, trying to find the best balance.

    Necessities
    1. When using gravity and boosts, I feel like the angles are unnessary unless somewhere on the screen it's going to show what the degree is to the nearest tenth maybe. I looked around and couldn't seem to find it, but I may of been not looking hard enough.​
    2. When using the brush, the line that you're drawing needs to follow directly after your cursor. Otherwise, it makes a mess for intricate detail.
    3. The brush length also needs to have a smaller mininum (as said by WheelieMaker). 4 units would be a good length, but 2 units would super innovating in the detailing category. Along with this, it would be nice if when you are changing the brush size, it would read off and tell you how far the line lengths are going to be on each straight line.
    Suggestions
    1. I love the full grid display behing the lines when grid is on, but it would be very beneficial to have the grid background, but not have your lines automatically click onto the grid layout For example, you could make a lines 37, 56, and 41 units long with the grid background on instead of only being able to make them with a zero at the end of each number (40, 170, 80 units long). Sorry, if you can't understand that. I'm not finding any easy way to explain what I'm trying to say.
    2. If you're not going to make the 25fps optional for posts tracks, it would be nice to have it optional within the editor. I have so much trouble making tracks and autos with 30fps. This is that important, but I am seriously looking forward to whenever you make the 25fps optional all around if you ever do. I thought I remembered you saying you would somewhere.
    3. With the select tool, it would be interesting to be able to copy a section from your track and post into a different editor. Same goes for making something in a cleared editor and posting in into a track.
    Bugs
    1. When zooming in and out with the grid on, it glitches out although this is already obvious and I think stated also.

    Please reply to some of these please, I'd like to hear what you've got to say about most of this. Thanks developers.

    will you be able to copy+paste with the select tool?

    Thats the plan. I started the angles with that intention, just never got around the implementing the number. I will do that soon.

    I adjusted the speed just now , give it a shot, you can now make it go faster.

    I just adjusted the break length to 0.2, its fairly small now.

    Suggestions
    I think I understand. Let me think about it

    1. Yeah, I could make this a feature.
    Bugs
    Yeah, zooming out is going to be laggy, as it needs to draw sectors. I am going to play around with that.

    Thats a sensitive subject for some people. We are not sure yet. It could really cause some issues. The general consensus is not to allow it.
    I am not sure what we are going to do with the select tool. Might do a poll.

    To branch off of East's suggestion about having the grid background up while not necessarily drawing on the grid, I'd like the option to turn off the grid background while drawing grid lines. Especially when the difference between the grid and scenery lines is incredibly small (and being upfront, I'd say having the grid background is distracting) it'd be nice to have the option to turn the background off while still being able to use the grid functionality.

    Aside from that, and a few shortcut ideas that have been posted, I have no complaints. This really is leagues better than the other editor and I'm extremely happy that it's turned out so wonderfully. Two thumbs up from me.

    Awesome, glad you like it. More features / changes to come.
    Sounds good. I will add the ability to turn off the grid background while keeping the mouse grid.
