PC is there a way to save a prefab in the editor with a diffrent name?

I loaded in my build but wanted to keep both the old build and the new.  but found no option for nameing my updated ie expanded build.

  will changing the file names work.. or is there some other tweeks needed to change the name to somthing other than same as my old build?

I already moved the old file out of localprefab. So I would not be saving over the older file

ok lets try this the simple way. others may tell you a different way and possibly better.. my way is safe and simple. i deal with this day in and day out.

you said you made a poi in the prefab editor. leave the editor (shut it down).

try to follow my chart. make a backup folder
* copy  all the files of the poi (should be 6 files)
* now in that folder rename all of them (careful that you keep the one with extra name on it the same must have the name.blocks.nim)
* now copy the newly named files and place them in the prefabs folder.

now you can access both under different names in the editor.

you can just rename the original files but its safer to keep them in original state thats why you copy them to a different folder and rename them.
