Move saved/loaded builds around?

[willywilly]

Is it possible to move a saved build around before loading it?

I built some big thingy on Slate and then some other big thingy later on. Now I had the idea of joining these two - but they overlap.
Is there some way to simply move a build a few blocks north or so?


I think this has been done by someone with the pre-retail Titanic, but I can not find info about it on these forums.

You'd have to edit all the bricks in the save file I think. Either that or move the first build with the world editor then load the second.

Cool. I did not think of the world editor. :)

Though I can't manage to do what I want with it. I fly through the build, select everything and then press F11 and choose Transform->Position and edit those values a bit. But for some reason just one brick gets moved. Is there something else to do other than clicking "apply"?

[Spation]

Yeah, have you tried moving it manually. Select it all then click anywhere in the hole build and drag.

[willywilly]

Allright. Thank you very much. :)

[Edit]
Turned out that this is very glitchy. The build gets torn apart while moving it. Small bricks move into another direction than bigger ones.

Is there something I might be doing wrong?

[willywilly]

This was just too crappy for me. I whipped up some crappy C++ that gets the job done.

Enjoy. I could make a proper commandline-utility - but then again I dont want to. If it doesnt work for you - my bad.

That's is the completely wrong format. Google "Torque Script Tutorials" :/ That's like source code and you can't use source code unless Badspot puts it in the exe

[willywilly]

It's C++.

Look in the cs files in Add-Ons. C++ is the source code of Torque, not the...whatever other code. I don't want to hewar you asking, so open them in Notepad and if you really want to modifie, get Notepad++ or Notepad2
