Easier way to change mod folders #202

Open CricketBr opened 1 year ago

CricketBr commented 1 year ago

I often have more than one game going, each with a different mod folder. I'm managing fine now by copy/pasting the paths I use most often, but it's irritating, and might be an easy change.

Putting a copy of yafc.exe in the mod folder didn't work. It continued to point to the last-used mod folder. (I might have missed a step.)

Storing pointer to mod folder in the save file might be easiest for users.

Command line, so we can make one shortcut per mod folder would also work.

There are probably other ways.

If you use the "Recent projects" button to select a previously opened file, YAFC will automatically select the mod folder that was used the last time that file was opened.

That's easy enough. I'll give it a try next time. (I just re-organized all my mod folders, so nothing's where the project files expect.) Thanks!
