Restoring Old Backups
Pre-2.206 versions of BetterEdit relied on the now-defunct BetterSave mod to create backups for levels. If you have backups from this time you'd like to restore, locate the old backups at <GD Save Directory>/levels/<level-string-id>/backups
, and then move them to <GD Save Directory>/betteredit-level-backups/<level-numeric-id>/backups
. The string ID (<level-string-id>
) of a level is likely very close to its name except converted to kebab-case, and <level-numeric-id>
can be seen in-game in the created levels list by enabling the Show IDs in Search
option from the Editor Level ID API
mod.
Support
BetterEdit is first and foremost a passion project, however it is also being developed by a poor student living on his own. If you would like to support development and help me out, I have a Ko-fi! Supporters get Early Access to features. I also plan on adding extra advanced features for Supporters in the future!
