    so, i have recently had to transfer to a better computer and like the diligent little engineer that i am, the first thing i did was download space engineers. I know its possible to transfer saved worlds (im doing that right now in fact), so my question is this. Is it possible to transfer blueprints and if so how do i do it?

    Are you transferring the saved worlds by moving files under your user folder, e.g. in sysdrive:/users/you/appdata/roaming/spaceengineers/...?

    I think the blueprints directory is another one from that point, as well as mods and such

    Easiest way to transfer blueprints is to publish them to the workshop (you can set their visibility to private). You'll automatically be subscribed and can import it wherever you want. You can also publish it again to update it.

    The Blueprints, Worlds and Mods are all stored in Appdata

    I actually got tired of hunting in my appdata for space engineers and just symlinked it to another folder. I then go and just copy my blueprints into a 7zip file that sits in dropbox when I quit the game. That way I have all my blueprints backed up if I mess something up. I can also use it to transfer my blueprint to another computer since they are in my dropbox. It is also 1/10th the original size so my backup is tiny compared to the normal blueprint folder. I save both my blueprints and my worlds this way. Mods I dont worry about since I can just redownload them off steam.

    just publish your script to workshop and then switch it to private.
