When trying to use the Map Exchange String or copying blueprints to a new game I cannot paste them to my game. I right click in the appropriate place and I don't even get the blinking curser. Tried using different mouse to no avail. I downloaded the game from Steam and am using the Build: Steam Ver: 0.15.37 (Build 30927, win 64, steam). I appreciate any help.

Not sure what you expect to happen when using the right mouse button, to paste the string from your clipboard in a field, make a left click in the appropriate field and paste with ctrl+v. If this does not work, post log and settings file.

OP expected a contextual menu with option to paste I think. You somehow have to guess you just need to Ctrl-V, and that the textbox for the map exchange string does have the focus.

I wish to thank all who help me with this issue. Through your help I was able to fix the problem.
