          What's new in 1.0.5 version?

          • There is a new param: Avoid entity collision. After 5 unsuccessful attempts, collided entity is erased.
          • Enscape proxies have real dimensions based on real model. This allows a better collision detection.
          • You can specify, via context menu, a spawn zone for generated objects. It is called "Random Zone":

                              [...] I think it's amazing you can make it work with Enscape and all. [...]

                              It also works with V-Ray and potentially other renderers. ๐Ÿ˜„ ๐Ÿ‘
                              Just randomize the component-proxy made with V-Ray/other...
