Version: 1.0.7
Date: 2026-10-03

Version: 1.0.6
Date: 2026-10-03
  Changes:
    - Set base endpoint distances to copper 11, iron 15, steel 19 and plastic 19.
    - Add quality bonuses on top of these baselines, including existing entities.
    - Apply the same baselines to supported legacy Bob pipe aliases.
  Bugfixes:

  Info:
    - Quality upgrades of built variants need matching source variants in planner filters.
    - New blueprints retain original entity names and real quality.

    - Handle real/ghost cursor, rotation, deletion, save/load state and surface changes.
  Info:
    - The original native cursor preview and automatic drag spacing remain unchanged.
