Help With Importing

[DrunkenKangaroo]

When I exported some stuff from one of my Maps and I put it on my other Map, all the previous data I had was deleted. This happens with Object Editor and Trigger Editor. Can some one help me.

That's what happens.

If you want to combine map data, you pretty much have to individually copy and paste things from one map to the next.

I found an easier way to paste objects from one map to another. Save all object data from the map you want to get your objects from. Then open up the map you want to transfer those objects to. Open the campaign editor(F7). Click on the Custom data tab. Now go to the top of the screen and click on EDIT. A drop down menu will appear. You should see "Import all object data" enabled. If it's not, then you haven't clicked on the custom data tab. Do it and it will be enabled. Click on import all object data and import the oher maps object data from wherever you saved it. This will transfer all object data from one map without wiping out the object data from the map you are importing the data into. Now you can copy and paste data from the campaign editor into your regular map. As for triggers, you just have to copy and paste individual triggers from one map to another individually (at least as far as I know). If you have alot of triggers it'll take forever but sometimes life's a bitch. Hope this helped you out a bit.
