Isy's Block Renaming Script

Would have been nice with a warning before using this, like: "don't use this script if your grid and subgrids exedes ex amount of blocks in use."

Making this script useless imo.

I don;t know if its possible as a feature but would it ne possible to add a command that added a prefix that you can set to all block in the grid?

So if I build a ship it can easily be identified when docking.

To conclude: it's complicated ;)

Sort by location isn't a trivial thing. The way, my script sorts blocks is by using the game's block getter, that spits out lists of blocks. The way, these are ordered doesn't have anything to do with the order, the objects were built. When building in SE, everything gets assigned a random number blockID and on script level, I get lists sorted by this blockID. Here an oversimplified example:

Refinery 1 gets blockID: 28
Refinery 2 gets 76
Refinery 3 gets 17

My script will now get the list of refineries in the order:
Refinery 3, Refinery 1, Refinery 2

And will rename them like that:
Refinery 3 -> Refinery 1
Refinery 1 -> Refinery 2
Refinery 2 -> Refinery 3

The only thing I could do to avoid that, would be a world position distance calculation, which would be very slow and ressource heavy and would also probably spit out wrong results because the distance would be calculated in a circle around a starting block - for example the programmable block running the script.

Hey Isy, another lover of your (multiple) SE scripts here. Question here.

Like user @Merii inquired on 09-27-23: The ability to autosort number by block location on the grid (like top-to-bottom, left-to-right), which could be very helpful to speed repairs by location, I know you have not implemented this feature.

However. As a good-enough workaround, I'm trying to see if there's an option in the script to autosort number by *existing* block number. In other words, an option for the script that would sort blocks 3, 7, and 20 as 1, 2, and 3, specifically in that same ascending order (but now also contiguous).

This solution would solve the bigger problem of numbering "by location" because users could just re-add blocks in Creative in the right order, existing numbering regardless. Then run the script with this option enabled. That make sense? If so, do you know if there's an option in the existing script to handle such a flag? I'm still trying to tell from the documentation.

there is a way to reset all names to their default name. for that read the guide, section > default name

This is cool, but I need something to translate+rename the blocks from Russian to English. Is this capable of that, or do you know of something that is?

the nomenclature of the syntax in the pictures on top seems not the same as what is described in the guide and used in the script, maybe from an older version

You're welcome :P

@Isy Thank you, that is much clearer for me to understand. I really appreciate your taking the time to dumb this down for me. As I've said before, this script is awesome. Now that I have a better idea how to use it, it will indeed save me a huge amount of headaches. Thank you again.
