Hello, my question is, I want to create the same textadventure in english (for publish) and in german (for my friends)
Is it possibly to copy a Textadventure and edit it?

Out of my experience the simple answer is: It is possible, I haven't tried it.

Theoretically, you can go into code view and collapse all the tabs and select everything to then copy, go to a new document, then paste over the new text adventure file.

Again, it's just a theory so abuse that save file button before you do anything.

Finally, and just out of curiosity; what kind of game are you making?

If you're using the desktop version, then simply copy the file to a new file. You will need to go into the new file and on the "game" object's Setup tab, click Generate... next to Game ID to generate a new game id for the new game. Otherwise, you won't be able to upload both games to the Quest website.

If you're using the web editor, I'm not sure of a way to do that.

If you have the game offline, just copy the file. You can keep it in the same directory, so it has access to other files, such as custom libraries, images, music.
