Additions

Minecraft:API

• Added new bindings and support for scripts to be able to push a TypeScript object as a payload on to the transaction stack, and register a set of handler functions which will receive the payload when the transaction system receives an undo or redo event.
• Added an export for Template:Cd so that it can be used in both internal and external Creator extensions.

Navigation System

• A Navigation record system has been added to Editor.
• Records are automatically created if the Player is more than 5 blocks away from the current head record (or in a different dimension) with a velocity of 0 and the last record was created at least 5 seconds ago.
• Template:Key moves the head back one Navigation record and teleports the Player to that record's location.
• Template:Key moves the head forward one record and teleports the Player to that location.
• Template:Key manually creates a record.
• Navigation records can be output to the Log panel via a menu item under the View top menu.

Line Tool

• A new line tool is added to the Editor.
• Freeform, fixed distance and adjacent face cursor selection.
• Block fill selection dropdown.
• Surface contour option to follow solid surface.
• The controls are as follows:
  • First left mouse click starts a line.
  • Second left mouse click completes a line segment.
  • A third left mouse click removes previous line segment.
  • Template:Key + second left mouse click continues with a new line segment from the end of the previous line.
  • Template:Key + left mouse click starts a new line.
  • The line selection can be filled either through the button on the tool panel or Template:Key key.Template:Info needed
