I have a base that is using all Concrete blocks. I want to replace every concrete block with the same style block of Armored Concrete. What would be the correct syntax for the ReplaceBlocks console command?
First type in console "DI" to get the build ID Number and details Then point to the type of blocks you want to replace and you will see its name at the bottom of the ID window Then type in e.g. replaceblocks (id number) ConcreteFull HullFullLarge This would replace Concrete Blocks for Steel Blocks, or replaceblocks (id number) ConcreteThin HullThinLarge This would replace Thin Concrete Blocks for its counterpart of Steel Hardened blocks have different names
Got it... had to run through almost every normal concrete block type, but the "di" command (Debug Info) makes it all pretty easy. replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteFull ConcreteArmoredFull replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteThin ConcreteArmoredThin replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteExtended ConcreteArmoredExtended replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteExtended2 ConcreteArmoredExtended2 replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteExtended3 ConcreteArmoredExtended3 replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteExtended4 ConcreteArmoredExtended4 replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteExtended5 ConcreteArmoredExtended5 replaceblocks 1011 ConcreteExtended6 ConcreteArmoredExtended6 Then was able to confirm I got all the blocks by looking at the "P" menu CPU info which now shows all armored concrete blocks contributing to CPU and no regular concrete blocks. Definitely better than trying to eyeball it!
Strange that sometimes it converted the textures to the default armored concrete and sometimes it left my painted textures in place. Possibly related to if I used the entire block texture toggle or not?
Yes, replaceblocks command still has a few issues but it's very usefull Some textures have problems and some shapes have problems and some block types also have issues, do not use it with truss blocks or windows
