Alignment Mod

The Alignment Mod is an Augment used by the Terrain Tool in order to create a truly flat plane. The has two functions while attempting to flatten terrain, based on the direction the camera is facing:
 * Wall Mode: Facing the horizon. Makes a wall perpendicular to the planet's curve. The wall will always face the player.
 * True Flat Mode: Facing the ground. The infamous "true flat" mode creates an ever-so-slightly curved ground that is tangent to the Planet's curve. This mode, if used for the length of the circumference of the planet, will wrap back around to the starting point, creating a circle. Players wishing to create a flat surface without deviation should use the terrain tool's inbuilt Flatten function (Control Key on PC).
 * Notably, the flat surface generated by the Alignment Mod is simply perpendicular to gravity at the exact polygon the flatten tool is focused on when the terrain tool activates. Consequently, at lower altitudes or closer to the cores of planets, it's necessary to occasionally pick new flattening locations in order to produce a true sphere, Otherwise, the closer to the core of a planet the Terrain Tool is, the less 'round' the surface produced will actually be.
