    I don’t quite understand why spawn on area has a toggle for “screen coordinates”, when while touching has a toggle for “world coordinates”.

    I personally believe a dynamic toggle would be better suiting. Left side is screen, right side is world. The text and toggle color will update as this is changed, at a glance indicating its function. The default for touching could be set to left, and default for spawn set to right.

    I could probably dig up a few more instances or examples if it would be helpful.

      @Thecheater887 yes! I’m always having to double check which one(for screen or for world) the toggle is for.
      Consistency there would be good.

        @Thecheater887 yeah you're right. Would a dropdown be more effective to fit with other newer behaviours?

          @Hamed I vote for a drop down, then you can have world coordinates, screen coordinates, percentages and relative movement units all in the one drop down, where needed.

            @Hamed I feel for just two options, the toggle would work better.

            Anything will work, though, I’m sure.
