Cadamier Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Hello, I was wondering if there's a way to transfer a map from a Dedi to a players map that they can see when they open the map tab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 The map files are in the save game, but I've never tried straight copying them. Worth a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meganoth Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Just copying the save game might work. If not, maybe try this: First start a game with the same seed and all on your local PC, THEN substitue your local save game with the save game of the server.

Guppycur Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Are we talking copying the map, or what the player sees when hitting map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadamier Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 Are we talking copying the map, or what the player sees when hitting map? YES! We'll I'll have to try again because it didn't quite work. What I did was copy over a SP game to a Dedi. I had revealed most of the map and wanted to have it available to my player on the dedi... It worked till I tried copying over the *.map file but the dedi got messed up some how. I know I didn't get everything (type of game, name, seed, etc.) exactly the same so I'll have to try it again.

Gamida Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Is there a way to transfer Allocs online map view to a MP server so when everyone opens their maps they see what everyone has explored? Maybe that is a question for Alloc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Yeh if the seed doesn't match then the revealed .map won't match anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beelzybub Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I've copied games from dedi servers to a client in A15 and A16. Never tried A17 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PinkLed5 Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I copied my A17 LAN dedicated server world to a hosted dedicated server. Not sure if that counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I think we're still talking about JUST the map that shows up when hitting M. ... transferring games is still the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SylenThunder Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I think we're still talking about JUST the map that shows up when hitting M. ... transferring games is still the same Yeah, from what I understood, they basically want to try to copy the fully explored map (like you see with Allocs API mod), onto a players .map file. Since the data is stored completely differently, I don't see how it would be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
