== USAGE ==
- Start Listen : Start the websocket server.
- Stop Listen  : Stops the websocket server.
- Hostname     : The IPv4 address for the websocket to listen on,
                   cannot contain paths (i.e. 127.0.0.1/mypath).
- Port         : The port for the websocket to listen on.
- f-time       : Function-time; Time it took to send/receive last update.
- avg-time     : Rolling average function-time.
- max-time     : Maximum time f-time can be before we can't send/receive
                   updates quickly enough. Cinema 4D only tells the plugin the
                   max time if we happen to exceed it, so you won't see a value
                   here until that happens, refer to the average time to decide
                   whether or not you should lower the update rate.
- Update Rate  : How many times per second the camera data is sent/received.
                   Higher values may cause instability, experiment at
                   own risk before using in any live capacity.
- Glob. Pos/Rot: When selected, the camera data will be applied (for receive)
                   or sampled (for sending) in global space. Otherwise it
                   will be sampled in local space, this setting is only
                   needed if you have your camera as the child of some null.
- Offset Rotn. : Adds an offset rotation to the camera in Cinema 4D/CS:GO. 
- Set Camera   : Select a camera in Cinema 4D, then click this button to use
                   that camera to transmit/receive camera data.
- Mapping      : When set to Cinema 4D, the selected camera will mimic the
                   game camera, when set to Game, the game camera will mimic
                   the selected Cinema 4D camera.
- Client List  : List's all the connected clients, click a clients checkbox
                   to make them the active client (note: you may only have
                   one active client at a time). Click a clients name to
                   rename them, and click disconnect to disconnect that
                   client from the server.
- Status Bar   : Will provide information about the current state of the plugin.
- Update (menu): Check for updates or enable/disable
                   automatic update checking for the plugin.
