[DONE] Multiple copy/paste slots.

Post by Snave2 »

I thought up a few suggestions to make the copy command more versatile. Would it be possible to add two or three or more copy slots that can be used when prompted? What I mean is /copy will default to /copy 1 and /paste will default to /paste 1, but we'd be able to use /copy 2 or /copy 3, or maybe even /copy [string] and /paste [string]. These would reset when one logs out, of course. Don't know if this will do bad things to the server like kill all its memory, or worse :o . But maybe it'll have a minimum impact, idono.

Also, maybe implement a /copyonly [x] and a /pasteonly [x] command? :pig:

Keep up the good work Fragmer!

Re: /copy [x]

I wouldn't mind having multiple copy/paste slots, but I am once again not sure about the syntax. Adding "/Copy X" syntax is easy, but /Paste command already has some parameters. Maybe instead of adding numbers to all those commands, I could add a separate command that selects the slot number? Like... you type "/CopySlot X" once, and then all copy/paste commands will use that slot?

Also, /Paste already has paste-only functionality. For example: "/Paste" pastes everything, "/Paste Brick" only pastes bricks, "/Paste Grass Dirt" only pastes grass and dirt, etc.

Thanks for the response. The way you described it sounds like it would work out very well.

And I just typed /help paste in-game...I should really use the help function more often.

If /paste only has block name parameters, and slots can only be numbers, you could do it without any more commands, really.

There's a catch, Hafnium: you can type in Minecraft block codes ("0" for air, "19" for sponge, etc. Full list here) instead of names. So I really have no way to tell slot numbers from block codes.

No. They're duplicate still water/lavas, sadly...

I tested them out in game, they look exactly the same, but /r water <whatever> and /r stillwater <whatever> prove that they're completely different... and equally lifelessly dull.

water/stillwater and lava/stilllava are used in vanilla Minecraft for water physics. They look exactly the same though.

very nice addition :)
is there also a command showing used copyslots?

I've also learned something:
"/Paste already has paste-only functionality"
