Patch v202411251432

Hello!

This small update adds an oft-requested feature: the ability to set the start state of parts like the Hydraulic Cylinder and Motorised Joint!

The start state can be changed from the inventory by right-clicking the part.

Here's the complete list of changes:

The start state of some parts can now be set in the inventory. For example you can set the hydraulic cylinder to start extended, or a hinge to start at 90 degrees.
The hydraulic cylinder now extends to 3 units instead of 2.8.
Fix a bug where the grappling hook would disconnect when playing co-op and the host player fast travelled.
Fix some visual glitches with the grappling hook.
Fix a bug where the grappling hook winch sound didn't play on net clients.
Fix a bug where the clipboard 3D preview wasn't positioned correctly.

Thanks for all the feedback!

Ian.
