Can I make survival map from creative?

[DejFidOFF]

Hi just wonder if I can make from new creative map survival by some command?

[Zane Mordien]

Do you mean change from creative mode to survival? That is just /gm 1 as a command. If you want to recreate the same map in a new world copy the seed.

I think the closest you can get to that is to create a survival map, then use worldedit to transfer your structures into appropriate locations, then clean up the transitions manually.

I thought he meant that but a creative map is flat with nothing on it. I think he would have had to start a survival world and go into creative to have a "map" worth playing. I feel like there was something missing in this question.

True. I read it as, "How can I take this thing I built in a creative world and turn it into a survival map?"

I don't think he's quite asking how to make it into a mod like Better Ruins. I think, rather, he's probably got some introductory area he would like to have at the origin of his server. I'm just guessing, of course. It's the reason I might want to do something like what he seems to be asking.
