Windows mapped network drive issue

Nyxion commented 2 years ago

Godot version

3.4.4.stable.mono.official.419e713a2

System information

Windows 10, GTX 1080, GameReady Driver 511.79, GLES3

Issue description

When using a Network Drive for project files in Windows the Godot Engine states that "The following files are newer on disk. What action should be taken?" everytime the project/scene is played with either F5 or F6. One thing is that YOU have to play the project/scene atleast once from when you first loaded it. After its been played once it will continuously show the pop-up. https://i.imgur.com/gpczEAT.png

It does not matter wether its a brand new project with just a single scene and some code, or an entire demo project from the asset library.

Steps to reproduce

Make a folder on another computer and share it on the local network
Open 'This PC' on Windows 10
Press 'Map network drive' and follow instructions
Create a folder on the mapped drive you just attached
Make a project on in that folder, create a scene + sprite + movement code(might be too much, i just did this too test)
Or use one of the Demo games in the asset library and create the project on the newly mapped network drive
After you've pressed play( f5,f6 ) and shut down the window, it will give you the window "The following files are newer on disk. What action should be taken?"
try alt-tabbing or playing the project/scene again and shut it down

Minimal reproduction project

I'm not sure if this can be fixed entirely – I never trust network drives that much with that kind of thing. Modified file detection may have to be disabled on network drives as a workaround. cc @mhilbrunner

Seems like a good idea in general on first thought, yes. Need to think about this some more. Maybe there is a better way.
