[WIP] Blueprint Assist Plugin

[fpwong]

Would you say your most pressed hotkey is align left and straighten connections?
Is your OCD turning your "this will only take 5 minutes" task into an hour long blueprint artwork?

Well the blueprint assist plugin might just be for you!

This plugin provides automatic formatting and mouse-free node editing when working with blueprints.

As someone who has been using blueprints for the past 2-3 years, I started creating this plugin with two goals in mind:

1. Save developers hundreds of hours otherwise spent aligning, positioning and straightening blueprint nodes
2. Keyboard shortcuts which would allow developers to edit blueprints without touching the mouse

And so the plugin includes these 3 major features:

1. Automatic node formatting: A command to format nodes into nice readable, aligned form. Including a format all symbols command.
2. Go to symbol menu: A custom menu which allows you to search and quickly access a Function / Custom Event / Macro / Graph in the Blueprint
3. Mouse-free blueprint controls: Keyboard shortcuts for node navigation, creation and linking

Release date: By the end of 2018 Hopefully by the end of January
Price: $15.00

Where are the resizing comment boxes?
Some of you might be wondering what happened to the resizing comment boxes feature. Well to get a grasp of the marketplace submission process, I've moved that to a separate plugin called AutoSizeComments and released it for free. Please download it and give some feedback!

Wire to drag sounds useful! From what I've seen it's not possible to access the dragging functions from a plugin, will have another look though.
But I will have a hotkey which connects selected nodes, achieving a similar affect.

The context menu buttons I have no idea if I can access that, will look into it.

Currently thinking either $15 or $20. Also might look into getting a dev grant and putting it into the engine. This way I could also add other features which aren't possible in a plugin

As soon as I saw this, I thought it would make sense to try to get it into the engine. Glad to see your dev grant app for that. Hope they take notice. /luck.

Oh man you are gonna be a millionaire.

I want this now! When?!

[Travistyse]

You're the anti-spaghetti lord. May dev grant funds rain upon you.

[Froggler]

Wow this looks incredible!!! Can't wait for this to be available

00:06 into the video, you can already count me in.

And even more since it's already the same ordering way I use (pure nodes below functions).
