So me and a few friends have a minecraft server and we recently restarted our long term survival world. Since I am the server admin I thought it might be fun to take the central region of our year old previous world and put it, like, 10,000 blocks away so that months from now, someone will come across it and it'll blow their minds.

I know there are world file editing tools but how user friendly are they and would copying a square kilometer or two out like this be feasible? Copying the nether wouldnt be necessary but might also be nice.

Also has anyone done something like this, server easter eggs and whatnot, and how did it go?

I haven't done this, but I believe McaSelector should be able to do this. I know it can copy chunks and place them into another world at the same location, I imagine you could use it to place them in another location?

Edit: Just opened it up and tried it out, yes! you can export chucks from one world, then import them to a second world at a different location

Nice, I'll give it a try and report back, assuming I can get mcaselector running on linux
