world editor question?
I have been playing around with the world editor, i have made a user copy of the navezgane map. i am able to make some interesting edits and so forth, however I am running into issues upgrading blocks.

Ill equip myself with a nailgun or stone ax and the materials needed and it just wont upgrade half of the blocks, ill try to upgrade one and the window above will get the trim upgraded instead and there seems to be no way to angle at the block (staring me in the face, not hidden behind things)

however in creative mode i can easily upgrade an entire house.

Am i doing something wrong? i really want a user copy of navezgane with some repaired houses etc. I dont want to have to build the house from scratch or tear it apart, just harden some of them and repair torn up parts in the green zone. I dont want a save file with them fixed, I want the ability to start any game this way

You are confusing the thing...

The workd editor tools it's a not a true world editor... It's just used to place prefab & done...

In a very short easy way, if you want change prefab & use it in the map Navezgane:

- You need check what it's the name of the prefab by open the map Navezgane in the world editor.

- Move the prefab from here ...\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Data\Prefabs\POIs to C:\Users\"Your name"\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie\LocalPrefabs

- Use game tools the prefab editor & open it & then do any change you want & save it.

- Re-use the world editor & go check change.

For other question in depth about the world editor & the prefab editor, go search/check video tutorial on Youtube (even if it's a old video) & go post any question on the official forum of 7DTD to have better answer...

i was able to see that i could look at the world and see which prefabs were what and load one in. a little playing around with it. landscape mismatch issues, etc. i guess i could repair POIs and name them "old_house_11_refurbished" etc and replace it on the exact spot, see what happens.
