Projector Preview - miniature blueprint display + damage status

Augments the projector with a miniature projection option.

Features:

• Preview mode - miniature blueprint view.
• Scale, move and rotate the miniature with precision, can even be positioned inside cockpits.
• Status mode shows damaged blocks, incorrect blocks, incorrect color, etc.
• See-through armor/decorations to see internal systems better.
• "Use this ship" - ability to load the projector's ship as a projection without needing to make it a blueprint first.
• "Align Projection" button (for build mode) to configure projector to perfectly overlap the blueprint with the ship (thanks Artorp!) - this is also automatically done for "use this ship" feature.

Usage

To use, simply load a blueprint in any projector and then change the projector to Preview mode in its terminal (see last screenshot).

The other settings have their function explained in the tooltip so that's about it.

The projection miniature gets hidden beyond 50m multiplied by the projection scale.

Mods that go well with this:

Holographic Projector (not mine :P)

[h1]Notes:[/h1] (not really issues but game's regular behavior) - Projector can't load the other grid size (e.g. small projector can't load large grids). - Projector can't load connected grids. - Transparency is affected by FXAA.

Issues

- Fixed [spoiler]Edges on the projection.[/spoiler] - Fixed [spoiler]Rotor heads don't spawn on blocks placed in a grid with a projector with preview mode turned on.[/spoiler] - Fixed [spoiler]The hologram effect does not glow in darkness.[/spoiler]

Debugging

Some verbose logging messages can be enabled to debug issues. NOTE: This will create a lot more text in info.log, don't enable it if you don't need it. Create a file named "debug" (no extension) in %appdata%\SpaceEngineers\Storage\517675282.sbm_ProjectorPreview\ to enable it on that machine only. The mod only checks on world load for that file to determine if it enables debug messaging or not.
