Copy only DECO

    This could be a new series of key commands, that would work alongside existing cut, paste, and copy commands.


    The cut/copy/paste message at the bottom left would be changed accordingly, to: "Click and drag to specify an area to [copy/cut] ONLY DECO. (right click = cancel)".

    The pasted in DECO would look just like a normal paste (in the placement box) and can be moved around accordingly, but when placed, it would apply that DECO to the area clicked. Think of this like painting a specific area.

     

    Key Binds:

    • Cut is CTRL + X, while cutting only DECO would be CTRL + SHIFT + X
    • Copy is CTRL + C, while copying only DECO would be CTRL + SHIFT + C
    • Paste is CTRL + V, while pasting only DECO would be CTRL + SHIFT + V

     I think there's a console command for this? Correct me if I'm wrong.

    Maybe we could have it copy only deco in the deco editor. It's been suggested many times, not sure why we haven't done it already.

    Yeah, it would make sense to be able to cut/copy/paste only DECO in the editor, but it may be confusing if you use the original key binds (CTRL + C/X/V) for that. A user might think they are copying an object, but they only copy the DECO.

     Yeah, deco storage would be perfect.

    I think it would be more confusing that way. We could have a different message when you do ctrl+c in the deco editor explaining that it only copies deco.

    Yes, that would be a good idea.
