I wish there was an option to flip horizontal or vertical

A few copy-paste bugs, not sure if the mod-author is even still around but may as well write them down:

Items get mixed up (Internal round lights are replaced with the external "Road" stick lights, which means auto-lighting can be an issue)

You cannot undo certain build blueprints once they are created.

Resource provision is broken, either not having enough, having too much, or having an entirely DIFFERENT resource.

it's a fantastic mod, but if only it could copy the utilities and foundations, then it would be perfect.

This mod is great. I use it to copy 40 bed dorms. Love it!
SalzStange 3 Jun, 2019 @ 7:02pm 
guess it's not more needed or? since it's in basegame?

Love it but could you add the ability of rotating it?Thx

Used this today and it worked awesome! The only downside I noticed to the process (and it took me a minute to figure out) was that when I constructed the new foundations before copying+pasting, auto-lights did me in and a lot of them were doubled up in weird areas (the copied ones and the auto-lights from the foundation). This caused my electrical to be way too high. I didn't realize that lights actually used electricity at first, but just a suggestion if you're copying and pasting is that you turn off auto-lights on your base foundation construction so you don't run into this issue.

Works like a charm!
MrSelenix 23 Dec, 2018 @ 12:53pm 
Shame theres no way (currently) to copy/paste Utilities too. But other wise, Cracking job. The measly 12x12 clone tool would not have been fun to use when I intend on copying a 200x111 ish building...... Twice!

Also, @Sambot, In the description it says ""3. Place the "Paste (upper right)" object in the upper-right corner"" When it should say "Upper left". Could possibly be confusing the people who cant get it to work. That or they never read the description.

Mod doesn't work without cheats, the trucks come with stuff and the items appear, but the workers doesn't actually build anything.

This mod is amazing! Good job
Dancing_Madman 1 Nov, 2017 @ 2:51am 
Tried to copy part of a building, didn't know what to do, so deleted all the unfinished "copy things". Now stuck with all these damn boxes. 10/10 would not sub again. (My mistake)
JFK_360NoScope 23 Oct, 2017 @ 5:46pm 
where is the copy button
ЄƬЄƦƝƛԼ MƛƝƬƦƛ 5 Oct, 2017 @ 7:59am 
Not working here !!
Xanadar 28 Sep, 2017 @ 9:22pm 
Freaking awesome, could you also add in the ability to rotate the objects?
ZawEasy 2 Aug, 2017 @ 12:44pm 
only one of them works!:steamsad:
FISHLUVR02 14 Jul, 2017 @ 11:09pm 
Fantastic, I have no idea why they made the stupid clone tool only do a small area.
Jennifer Lawrence 30 Jun, 2017 @ 1:42pm 
yea i have no idea what im doing wrong but this isnt working for me.
Z10987654321X 25 Jun, 2017 @ 3:18pm 
Great mod. You should make it so you can rotate the paste object before you build anything.
Em 16 Jun, 2017 @ 3:47am 
Just what i needed, thanks!
VTitanV 25 May, 2017 @ 7:12am 
Awesome mod but it took me a few minutes to figure out how to use it.
Marcuz 7 May, 2017 @ 4:24pm 
Thank you for this amazing mod.
Are you accepting mod requests?
Greeting.
SpareRibs3985 1 Apr, 2017 @ 3:28pm 
works for me, have you read the description of how to do it?
iggy 20 Jan, 2017 @ 9:34am 
Doesn't work, lol.
RavenOne 19 Jan, 2017 @ 7:10am 
FYI, this mod conflicts with Prision Parole in the game. I have to disable to allow the game to normally do Parole's(for them to even show as pending in the "to-do" list). When I want to copy/paste, I enable the mod and then once done, I disable again.

wardn 3 Dec, 2016 @ 1:08am 
Err... how does this work:steamsad:
Mr Squeek 26 Nov, 2016 @ 5:30am 
One add in. The last two pics... the sofa is missplaced!
Treve 14 Nov, 2016 @ 9:01am 
is it possible that the copy paste is not working fully? its not copying signals from logic gates, and the most usefull way to use youre mod would be to copy and paste chips, flipflops, etc (building computer to regulate my prisondoors (all doors). (make everything in vaults). hope to use youre mod oneday. thx (rotate would be very welcome as well)
Fuyuno 6 Nov, 2016 @ 2:44pm 
is it pssible to rotate the pasted... stuffs?
Noxedwin 5 Nov, 2016 @ 12:59pm 
It doesn't seem to copy Room Zones. I'm trying to put in a new cell-block and it doesn't copy the Room Zone from the thing I'm cloning from.

Goddamn, though, this thing is helpful. It made me laugh a bit to see a Worker carry the Copy Object in like it's a stack of bricks.

9/10. The Room Zone not seeming to copy across is an trifling loss. Also the three dollars it takes to put these Objects down. Also funny to me.

hi
Telebuddy 2 Nov, 2016 @ 1:14am 
Hey, can you explain to me how the mod works? I seem to be stupid. Even with the instructions I get it not
Kyzer 1 Nov, 2016 @ 6:25pm 
The difference;

Clone can only do objects and materials.

C+P: Everything.
I STAPLE TAPEWORMS ON MY 1 Nov, 2016 @ 4:52pm 
@kurpingspace2
did you even read? "Copy and paste unlimited area with the Copy-Paste Mod!"
this mod does an unlimited area while the clone tool has a small limited area.
kai 1 Nov, 2016 @ 3:14pm 
so, whats the difference with the clone tool?
Sambot (human tho, ffs)  [author] 1 Nov, 2016 @ 8:38am 
@Google_Chrome I can't access that, or I would have.
@Jan88666 You only need upper-left and lower-right to define a rectangle.
@undefined1223 Interesting... my guess is that your computer doesn't have enough graphics memory to run multiple mods, and trying to render the corner pushes it over the edge. I'll look into it though...
undefind1223 29 Oct, 2016 @ 11:39pm 
Makes my game crash as soon as the worker tries to install one of the corners.

It worked 1 time though, but that was before I installed some of your other mods.
Telebuddy 28 Oct, 2016 @ 12:00pm 
Werde is the Upper Right Icon??
John Walker 28 Oct, 2016 @ 10:46am 
Love your mods man, keep up the good work :D

@Barisko OH GOD THE POSSIBILITIES ARE LITERALLY ENDLESS...
No 27 Oct, 2016 @ 2:18pm 
This seems so much more annoying to use than the clone, couldn't you just use their system but up the radius?
