Custom folder path #2160

Closed einord closed 1 month ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The documentation tells that the folder to install the add-on must be in res://addons/dialogic. But this may conflict with the rest of the folder structure, and when not using this particular path dialogic will not run properly.

Describe the solution you'd like It should be possible to modify this path in the settings of dialogic.

Hello, can you provide an example where this is needed?

As per guidelines, editor extensions belong in the res://addons/ folder: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/plugins/editor/installing_plugins.html

Sorry @CakeVR my bad. I didn't know this was the preferred way.

Just to clarify, the location and naming of the addons folder is a godot-related thing. While we could try to allow for the plugin to work at a different path, godot will only recognize the plugin as an addon if it is placed in that folder. So unless that changes, this is not a thing we can do.

I will close this, but feel free to reopen it, if the situation changes or I misunderstood.
