Any way to fix WorldEdit not being able to change the damage value on blocks?

[Backplague]

Since i need more space in my base to prepare for the update, i have to move it 30-40 blocks down. The base is big and complicated, so it would actually be easier to just blow it up and make a new one. But since WorldEdit can move blocks down, this would be super easy. But WorldEdit cannot set damage values on some blocks, so RedPower wires become to slabs, all machinery turn into generator's or machine blocks and all cables turn into copper cables. Same with computers, all data on the computers are lost and their orientation changes. So, is there anything to do to have WorldEdit save all that data and restore it?

I don't think so, had problems myself with this, sorry :/

Maybe you can just make a whole new part of your base?

Well i have been thinking of making a 10 blocks high room next to it and expand my machinery room downwards but ill see what ill do.
