Would an Import/Export feature be allowed in a game?

I am making a game involving building. I want to have a feature that lets players export their builds as a string format and import them back. However, I have concerns about possibilities of breaking the rules:

  • Would that not be allowed in the first place since presenting the raw file string could be interpreted as presenting unfiltered text?
  • Would telling the player to select and copy the text also be against the rules?

I have a full idea of how to implement this idea, (including marking a save as being imported if another player gets it) but I was wondering if filter rules would even allow such a feature.

F3X has the same system where you can export your builds. Users would copy the generated ID and import the build at any time. This shouldn’t be against rules, but that may have recently changed. Hope you find your answer!
