Be sure both mods are enabled. If the MorePlanning mod is not enabled, its plan designations won't be loaded, therefore there is nothing for this mod to convert.
Go to the mod settings and press the 'Convert' button. All MorePlanning designations will be converted to WallDesignations with a color that is close to the original MorePlanning colors. So if you have changed the original colors, then the new colors won't match.

Yes, you can. But for it to work, you have to change the shape of this mod to 'rectangle' (right click on 'Plan Wall' button) and its variant to 'filled rectangle' (default key to switch between variants is 'V'). Otherwise, both mods try to modify the shape, which will not result in what you would expect.

Yes, there is. Go to the 'mod settings' and turn 'persistent plans' off.

Be sure they're not just hidden. You can toggle the plan visibility either in the architect menu, by clicking on the small icon in the bottom right corner or by using the global hotkey (default: '\').

This mod can be added at any time. By removing this mod, you will get a one-time error message and lose all your planning designations. Other than that, you should be fine.

Feel free to make any suggestions in one of the created threads (e.g. Features, Ideas, Suggestions). If you prefer GitHub[github.com], you can also create new issues there. If you feel confident, you're more than welcome to branch the code and create a pull request for a newly implemented feature.

Please, also take a look at the GitHub repository[github.com] / GitHub project[github.com] for already existing issues.

Unfortunately, I'll have to rely on the community here. I'm only fluent in German and English, for everything else I require the help from one of you. If you're willing to help, then here[github.com] are the language files to translate. Start with translating the English file, then take a look at the languages (e.g. German), as there are more files with translations for the keybindings, etc.

I've tried to compile it for RimWorld v1.3. Unfortunately, there is quite a bit that I would have to add or change, to make it work. So for now, I don't think it would be worth the effort.

The problem is, that the designations aren't rendered in a batched call. When I add about 20.000 designations and fully zoom out (using Camera+), my FPS takes a slight hit. You will encounter the same problem, when using the MorePlanning mod or vanilla paint-tool (for floors or buildings/structures) and add that many designations.

The blueprint files are located in the 'planning' folder next to the save game directory. On Windows, you can try using this shortcut '%localappdata%low\Ludeon Studios\RimWorld by Ludeon Studios\Planning' to get there.
