I just made a few improvements to the City Plan creator web tool backend code.

1. The plots now have a small amount of wiggle room when the code compares levels for plots in the same space. Since they aren’t deleted between levels, it can be easy to accidentally end up with duplicates in your city plans if you accidentally move or rotate them at all in one of the earlier levels.

This should highly reduce the likelihood of duplicated plots.

2. Angles are now normalized. Occasionally, Transfer Settlements could record angles far outside the expected 0 - 359 range. For example you might have an item with a rotZ value of 350 in one level’s blueprint, and -10 in another. Mathematically, these are the same angle, but the City Plan creator tool wasn’t prepared for these.

This change will further reduce the chance of duplicated plots and items being recreated needlessly between levels.
