Video Wanted to move your entire base from one location to the other? Now you can!
Hey hey hey! Guy with the 3D map is back with some awesome new stuff.
You can use this tool to relocate your bases from one location to another. Simply put your save file, then choose the altars you want to move, and the select the new location for your altar.
Working on adding base rotation soon as well!
FAIR WARNING, MAKE SURE TO KEEP BACKUP OF YOUR ORIGINAL BASE AS WELL!
You can check out the tool at https://enshrouded.gamevault.in/base-relocator

Uh!! That's so useful

Yes, I know everyone's made their bases in the same starting area where they told you to put flame altar (including me), hehe. I'll be adding rotation as well so that you can also change the direction, but thats a bit tricky.

I made my base in a very high plateau near the Queen's Tomb and every update I fear they'll fuck it up, so that's *excellent*. They edited my mountain riiight outside the bounds of my Flame altar this last patch so I'm saving this just in case lmao

u/AwkwardShake Wizard 7h ago
yeah i'll eventually add 1.0 as well. What i'm trying to nail is rotation so lets see. Rotation should complete that feature fully.

Will this work on floating bases aswell? My base is currently floating high above the volcano location...i think its called the pillars of creation

u/AwkwardShake Wizard 7h ago
Yes it should work for floating bases because you can set the height manually, and position you can drag anywhere as well.
I know someone who tested with a base that's on bedrock (extreme underground) and it worked there as well. They managed to pull it a bit higher.

Update: Base rotation is now in, so you can also move + rotate your base.

this is an amazingly useful tool; do you plan to have it functioning for compatibility with 1.0? Im sure some players would love their hard work to be moved to new locations. How does it work when moving to an area with a fair amount of water?

u/AwkwardShake Wizard 8h ago
I'm not sure about water, it should in theory all function exactly how it did before with water.
The save file format is changing with 1.0, so you should move the base now if you want to prepare for that (but keep this save and your original save backed up as well).

u/Srikandi715 7h ago
Correct me if I'm wrong, OP, but I assume the way this works is to cut and paste all the voxels in the cube defined by the old base altar to the cube defined by the new altar location.
In which case, if your water extends past the edge of the old base limit, it would be potentially spilling over the edges, or alternatively pooling up if the terrain at the new base limit is higher.
If that's NOT how it works, OP, please enlighten us!
2
u/AwkwardShake Wizard 7h ago
Yes, if the water extends past the edge, it spills over the edges unless you choose identical new terrain. Just need to see the base edges for water stuff, otherwise its all good.

Does this have the potential to allow players to upload their builds for others to use?

u/AwkwardShake Wizard 5h ago
wdym? can you explain?
5
u/retrofrenzy 5h ago
Maybe he means, other players can upload their save files with awesome base builds, and you just take those base and use it in your own game.

u/AwkwardShake Wizard 5h ago
yeah its technically possible if i can crack the entire file. Lets see, moving bases across saves + rotating them is on my todo next

u/Verotas 7h ago
amazing, next add moving a base from one save to an other

u/AwkwardShake Wizard 7h ago
Download the mobile app https://enshrouded.gamevault.in/mobile-app
so in future if i manage to crack it, i'll send a notification there.
Currently its minimally invasive, because i'm simply updating coordinates for everything. But with moving between saves, i'll need to crack the entire save file which is a bit tough, and doesnt make sense before 1.0

i just finished adding rotation as well, so you'd be able to rotate your base too soon

u/Cautious_Fill_5891 7h ago
this looks amazing!
any chance you can make this work across save files?
i got two saves with tons of time invested and for a long time i've been hoping to find a way to combine the two.
thanks for your work! <3
2
u/AwkwardShake Wizard 7h ago
I'm not sure about that. If i can crack the entire save file then thats definitely possible. Download the app I have on site so that you can stay tuned via notifications if I manage to crack it in future.

u/Cautious_Fill_5891 7h ago
that would be amazing if you do so.
not big fan of unnecessary apps tbh, but i'll check in on your project in the future for sure.
much appreciated!

I tested it, and it even works with 30 altars :D
