Accessing map/player data smaller than a region file?

[Lonestarcanuck]

on my server, if something goes wrong I can restore a player file or region file. but a region I am told is 512x512.

someone said it is possible to restore smaller "chunks' of data around a map location. if so how can this be done?

I know coppis mod allows you to make copies of a map location so I am thinking you could take that code and lift a piece from a saved map and restore it to a new map. I assume that is what coppis mod does.

the prefab export commands are just reading the area in the live world and creating a prefab with it. You could code it to pull the data from the region files but nobody has coded it to work that way yet.

cool. that is what I was thinking. maybe next week with my downtime, so each region file is a section of 512x512 of the map so just need to map the coordinates from the game to a region file. at that point is it a X 0-512 Y = 0-512

?

Not sure I'm understanding correctly.

Are you looking for something like this?
