🎯 Performance: If the editor feels sluggish, try lowering the UI FPS Cap or disabling UI Auto Scale.

🎯 Grid Workflow: Enable Snap To Grid when precisely positioning objects, disable it for freeform placement.

🎯 Navigation: Increase Movement Smooth Speed for snappier camera control, or decrease it for cinematic-style movement.
