Question Regarding BuildSystem Save Format

Hi,

Sorry for asking so many questions lately, and thank you for taking the time to answer them. I really appreciate it.

I have one more question regarding the new save format.

Many of my players use Fortify to design or refine their Rust bases before building them in-game. They also use CopyPaste to save and restore those builds. Since Fortify can read the CopyPaste JSON format, this has become the standard workflow for many players.

Unless I'm overlooking something, BuildSystem only saves builds in its native format. Is there already a way to export a build as a CopyPaste JSON file?

If not, would it be possible to add an optional CopyPaste-compatible export? It wouldn't replace your native save format, but it would allow players to continue using Fortify alongside BuildSystem. This is something my players ask me about quite often, as they like to plan and modify their builds in Fortify before using them in-game.

I think adding an optional CopyPaste export would be a great quality-of-life feature and would also make it easier for communities to adopt BuildSystem without changing their existing workflow.

Thanks again for your time and for creating such a great plugin!

Hi, 
The CopyPaste was a little buggy, some times stopped working and players lost their saves that's whas the main reason I had to switch to an internal saving mechanism. I am thinking to add an option to export as CopyPaste and Import from CopyPaste because it was asked as well by @Venedas

I have added the stability on the test server and I think I will add 2 more buttons to the plot manager to import and export to/from copypaste:





I am also working on the new forced wipe update, they broke the BuildSystem plugins and I am still working on a fix, but I will try my best to add also the copy paste feature.

 

Changed Status from Pending to Not a Bug

When you have time have a look into the test server 23.81.34.186:25015
