Transferring reservoir files between worlds #177

Does this suggestion already exist?

Feature Explanation

Hi there, first I want to say this this mod is super cool.

Second, this isn't exactly a feature request per se, but more of a question. I'm hosting a server in which the world has been generated externally, without IP, ala https://earth.motfe.net. Because this world was generated without IP, it has no reservoir regions.

The question is this: Can I transfer reservoir regions from another world into my server? I don't really care that the reservoirs are generated in the right places, just that they work. I have done some experimenting, and it appears that just copying data/ImmersivePetroleum-ReservoirRegions.dat and data/ImmersivePetroleum-ReservoirRegions/ into the new world shows that reservoirs at least appear in the survey tool. Should I expect this to work with the pumpjack and derrick? Is there anything else I need to know? Risk of corrupting the world?

Thanks!

Update: This strategy appears to have worked. If it messes up the world it's totally my fault but I don't really expect anything to happen. Hopefully this issue can help someone else!
