Hey guys. Just wondering if it's possible to copy and paste a room from one level to the other. You see, I put my winzone in this particular room that I'd like the next level to start off in. This isn't really too much of a problem, I can just try and recreate it, but I was just wondering if there was an easy way to do this. Thanks ahead of time!

@BesideReaper
As far as I know, you can, I think it's somewhere in the FPSC manual, you can find it in the part where it tells you how to make your own prefabs.

I had found it before, but it wasn't able to save the entities inside the prefab. :-(

You can copy and paste, but from my own experience it isn't that easy nor is it effective. Decals and other dynamic entities don't always paste properly, room walls get turned around or even upside-down, and other random stuff can happen that makes you pull your hair out.

Your best bet is to recreate the room from scratch. Go through each entity and write down what its coordinates are in the room (where it sits), and then drop them in the new room. This is easier than copying, pasting, fixing, and then starting over anyhow.

Copying and pasting in FPSC has many issues. Infact I think I should post this in the bug section. Be nice to get some fixes with the clipboard for the 1.20 release.

prefabs only save segments (and maybe static entities, but i dont think so).
