Clipboard and Schematics

Commands​

CommandPermissionDescription
/lasers clipboard copylasers.adminCopy an area previously selected using WorldEdit region selection wand (wooden axe).
/lasers clipboard pastelasers.adminPaste an area previously copied via /lasers clipboard copy or loaded via /lasers schematic load <file_name>.
/lasers schematic save <file_name>lasers.adminSave an area in the clipboard previously copied via /lasers clipboard copy. <file_name> must not already exist. The file <file_name>.leschem will be placed inside the plugin folder.
/lasers schematic load <file_name>lasers.adminLoad a previously saved schematic via /lasers schematic save <file_name>. You can use /lasers clipboard paste to paste it after it is loaded.
/lasers schematic download <name_or_url>lasers.adminDownload a schematic from the Lasers-Enigma website into your clipboard. <name_or_url> can be a full URL, a file name with or without the .leschem extension. Tab-completion suggests available schematics from the website. Use /lasers clipboard paste after downloading.

âš  If a puzzle is not available using /lasers schematic download <name_or_url> command, join our minecraft server, enter the puzzle and type /puzzle download command. This will publish the puzzle schematic on Lasers-Enigma website and make it available for download via /lasers schematic download <name> command.

âš  The autocompletion of the /lasers schematic download <name_or_url> is retrieved from Lasers-Enigma website asynchronously. So the list will be empty the first time you load it. Just wait a second and delete the space character before the <name_or_url> parameter then type the space again to get the full list.

âš  Most common user problems comes from overlapping areas. Indeed, 2 areas must not overlap. We suggest the usage of /lasers area show command to view the existing areas nearby.

Known bug and workarounds​

If the Components are invisible (but still present) after a paste, you will have to restart the server.

When you copy and paste, the links a component holds toward another component are preserved in both flows (area copy/schematic and single-component copy from the main shortcut bar):

  • a component's "specific activable component" condition and a Laser Solidifier's targeted lasers;
  • an elevator call button toward its elevator;
  • a key chest toward its lock;
  • a cube creation button toward its cube distributor.

A link is rewired to the pasted copy of the target when that target is copied too (e.g. you copy a whole area containing both ends). When you copy a single component, or an area that does not contain the target, the link is kept only if you paste it back into the area where the target still exists — otherwise it is dropped with an error message.

Key chests are a special case: a key chest is only handled when its lock is in the same area. If the lock is in another area, the key chest is skipped when copying the area (a message tells you how many were skipped), and pasting such a single key chest into an area that does not contain its lock is refused with a message.

Limitations​

  • Copying a single component does not work for elevators — the single-component clipboard does not carry the cage's blocks. Copy the whole area instead.
  • An elevator pasted as part of an area is placed at its ground floor, so copy it with the cage parked at the ground floor.
  • An area-scoped leaderboard keeps pointing at its original target area: the area link is copied as-is, never remapped to the pasted copy. If that area no longer exists when you paste, the leaderboard is pasted unconfigured — set its target area again.
