Copy and paste can't automatically change the current selection in edit mode, no matter how much script you have behind it. In order for scripters to begin automating nasty repetitive mapping processes, they are going to need something like a move/shift selection command. Select could possibly be used, but somehow we'd have to use (whereami, or something along those lines) to determine where to even attempt to move the selection to. Select works with coordinates whereas this move/shift selection command idea would simply work on axises if I'm thinking of it correctly.
N could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the north direction.
S could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the south direction.
E could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the east direction.
W could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the west direction.
F could = flip the current selection to the floor or ceiling.
Or something along those lines, trying to do something like that with (select) and (whereami) ATM would be highly complicated and the script wouldn't be worth writing ATM, IMHO.
Also C+P doesn't work in coop.
[SELECT ALL] Code:
/shiftselection N S E W F
N could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the north direction.
S could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the south direction.
E could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the east direction.
W could = # of cubes to shift the selection in the west direction.
F could = flip the current selection to the floor or ceiling.
