Multiplayer World Copying

This also happens to me. I tried quit and copying a map, but only what appeared to be a chunk actually saved. The rest reverted to its original seed. I tried this several times, with only the same chunk loading each time. Also, when others joined my copied map, as soon as they spawned, they began suffocating. (The spawn was made to be underground[on the original]). When they got out, they saw only the original seed, they could not see the saved chunks additions. The game did save, however, the position of the animals, and the dyed color of the sheep throughout the entire process.
This was done on an iPad two, using iOS 6 and whatever the one that comes right before it, but the two devices were using the same iOS level. Also, they were both synced to the same computer. I hope this is helpful.😸

Wow, that was a LOT

This is also happening to me on Android (Xoom & Samsung Note 10.1 tablet and Samsung Note phone), that is, I experience partial saves, it saves what I've been working on, but not what else has been built in other areas of the land (this was experienced in "creative" mode). This copy is a very useful feature and would be nice if it worked correctly.

With regards to "Walter Henstra", grow up and make you server invisible by default, this will stop people connecting to your world if I'm not mistaken!!!

A way to get around this is place a block here and there around and on anything you want to save before you save. Seems like the game doesn't save anything unless it sees you working there.

I tried that, and it saved one wall of the entire castle.

Probably because you just put one block, you must put blocks here and there everywhere you are trying to save, trust me it works you just have to put enough

No... I put down about ten blocks, BUT they were all really close to each other

That's why, you need to put a block here and there all around and through the area you want to save, it will save, it's annoying though and of course you'll have to remove all the blocks

Is it just you, or can all players put the blocks down?

What if you want to save the entire world?

I've only done it my self, recently I've only been playing with one other person, also if you want to save the entire world you have to put blocks here and there everywhere

Example of this on a small scale (attachment)

Oh, yea... It also seems to save little things, like paintings

A thing similar to This happened to me the other day, but I had only been disconnected from the server. I went to a part of the map no one had been on while I had joined, and found only paintings floating, (pic above). I hadn't quit and copied.

The paintings had been a part of a castle...
