Description
Hello, I'm currently trying out the world feature and I love it, it's pretty dang useful to make a map layout based on older limitations. But I'm facing a small workflow issue : what's the best way to make the world layout update when I create a new map.
Currently my process is :
- save a current map as a new one with new coordinates
- (empty the new map)
- unload the world
- load the world
I guess it's fine when you a few amount of maps or small maps, but I wonder if it won't get problematic in the future. Thus I was wondering if detecting if the world must be updated if the saved-as map matches the world would make a good feature.
Thanks and have a nice day.
Note : I'm using regex matching to automatically place maps, if that can help
