  1. Sorry for my English, I use a translator.

    I do not know whether it is possible, but if you add a function paste buildings to the coordinates would simplify the creation of arenas for the events. There would be no need to create spawn files after each wipe.

    Can you update it so that we can copy what is in the distribution thanks
     
  3. File is empty... I cannot paste my creation in rust. I have the .json file placed correctly in the server. But when i go... /paste FILENAME It just has that error "file is empty". Is there a known fix for this?? Please any help would be great.
     
  4. Hi,

    It seem it cannot work to check versions with updater plugin.

  5. Hey, I would love to use this plugin for transporting buildings around the map but for some strange reason when I go to use the command nothing happens? The plugin loads
    Code:
    Loaded plugin Copy Paste v3.0.20 by Reneb
    but yet it doesn't make a config and doesn't work in the game???
     
  6. Never mind I found a fix ;)
     
  7. If i wipe the server i can paste what i save?
     
  8. Yes, that's what this plugin is for. :)

    Some things dont copy: Contents of Lamps/Lights, COntents of Vending Machines, Soemtimes things in small furnaces, Large Furnaces)
     
  9. You can also paste it back to the same coordinates of the original with /placeback <name>
    Useful for ocean buildings or when you are planning on using the same map/seed
     
  10. @Renab can you make it copy the guest door codes like it does the main codes?
     
  11. This seems broken for me. I can no longer paste builds from Fortify. It just says file empty.
     
  12. @Reneb I've started using radius and mechanics proximity to copy my town that I use on every wipe, however, flat land is hard to come by these days on procgen, would it be possible for the next iterations autoheight to dynamically alter the autoheight of each building? As the autoheight currently will only apply to the height of the thing you initially copied (in my case a pagoda at the centre of town). Any else will just be at the same height as it, which is great if you've got flat land, but again, hard to find. I've been resorting to using height 2 and using stairs where I can.
     
  13. I just did it this morning, worked fine for me. You will get an error saying "file empty" if you misspelled the file name, or you put the file in the wrong folder. If you doubled checked that and still not working, does your file name by chance have spaces in it? I dunno if the mod handles file names with spaces.
    [DOUBLEPOST=1488244944][/DOUBLEPOST]Has anybody figured out how to convert sign picture data saved into the json into an actual image? I would use a mod to copy a sign and convert to an image to save, but I don't think that exists yet.

  14. well, i answered my own question in like 10 minutes. I found in the mod it saves image data as a Base64 string. Using this converter I found online, it perfectly converts it back into an image!

  15. Same here man. Its broken atm sadly
     
  16. Weird, I haven't changed anything with that code except for including some new deployables. Just pasted a foundation layout yesterday without any issue. Can someone pastebin a .json that's not working.

    Edit: Filenames with spaces need to be in quotes (/paste "example base").

  17. Suggestion: Add functionality to delete a structure using the same kind of detection that copies it. Having to press my ent kill key to delete a building is tedious.

    Edit: Woops I see there is an undo command. Still it might be nice to be able to delete whole buildings that weren't pasted.
     
  18. Can you please setup a console command for pasteback
     
  19. please make it copy the following:

    - Fuel in lights (Tuna Can Lamp, Ceiling Light, Lantern)
    - Door Guest Codes
     
  20. I need help. Building copied fine, but when I paste it, it pastes halfway through the floor and its a pain to get it removed. How can I make it so it pastes on the surface automatically? it's hard to guess with the aim where I want it. It either pastes in the sky or into the ground :/
