Add ability to create local packages #249

Open softwareantics opened 3 months ago

softwareantics commented 3 months ago

It would be a nice feature to add the ability to create local packages using Stitch. Right now, I have a core project that I sometimes have to update, having to open GM just to make those changes can be a little tedious sometimes.

I'm not quite sure what you mean -- I don't know what a "local package" is in GameMaker parlance. (I'm not actually much of a GameMaker dev; I made Stitch for my teammates who are GameMaker devs.)

Local packagers are a feature in gamemaker that allows users to share code between projects. You can find it in the Tools menu.

Gotcha, this isn't a feature we use so I don't think I'll be able to spend any time on it. Stitch does have an experimental "import" feature for importing resources from another project into the open one, but I'm not sure if that helps with this at all.
