* For now, this is limited to instances inside custom objects. This will be made available in the future for all instances in scenes if this works well.
* New actions are available to save & load the game state, making Saving & Loading as easy as adding 1 action to your game!
* While it will work in most cases, it has a few limitations and hasn't been thoroughly tested on all types of objects/behaviors and games, so it is for the moment tagged as **Experimental** while we gather feedback and improve it
* Check out the wiki for more info: https://wiki.gdevelop.io/gdevelop5/all-features/save-state
* When an object is selected (or when "Edit object" button is clicked in the properties panel after choosing an instance), the properties panel will show the properties of the object.
* This allows for fast edition of most elements of an object: appearance, properties, but also behaviors, variables and effects. Most workflow and iterations on your game should be faster, from adapting the appearance of a text to tweaking behaviors and updating the preview to check the result in realtime.
- Improve performance display when painting
- Fix painting when tilemap is rotated
- Allow atlas size to be something else than a tile size multiple and ignore last column and row
- Display error message only when the the tile size is greater than the atlas image
- Do not crash preview if tilemap badly configured
- Add object name in actions and conditions
* This allows playing around with instances directly on the canvas instead of relying on the actions to flip or change opacity and needing to start a preview
This PR adds a new TileMap object that can be configured directly in GDevelop.
Import an atlas image, configure the tile size and start painting in the editor!
You can also configure which tiles should have a hit box and use them as platforms.
* Still to do:
* Properly handle effects (disable 3D effects) for layers
* Handle hot reloading properly
* Avoid duplicating the configuration of the custom object inside each object created from it. Instead, only store the modified values.
* Add a "Extract as a custom object ("prefab")" when selecting instances in a scene.
* Add a dialog to give choice between 2D or 3D object when creating one.
* Make sure "behavior shared data" are properly handled (physics, pathfinding...)
* Check if we need to give an expression to translate coordinates from the parent to the local custom object.
* Ensure a deleted custom object does not break the editor

* An object changing layer during the game is now properly moved to the layer on the other players games
* Video object can be synced as well
* Pathfinding behavior is now properly synced, allowing a smooth prediction on other players games
* Spine object is now synced as well
- Global or scene variables can be used with a unique action and condition.
- Object variables can be used with a unique action and condition.
- Variables need to be declared following the same logic as the new expression syntax.
- Local variable can be declared on events
- Extensions have their own variables
- Show a diagnostic report when a preview is launched and there are missing scene variables, object variables or behaviors.
- This is especially useful if external events are shared between several scenes.
* Only the first scene and global objects resources (images, sounds, 3D models etc...) will be downloaded during launch of the game. This usually allows for a very fast loading time.
* Other scenes resources will continue to load in the background. It has no impact on the game performance as this is done on other threads by the browser or the engine running the game.
* Scenes are loaded in the order they are listed in the project manager.
* You can also use actions and expressions to prioritize a scene (if it's known that a level will be needed soon for example) or read the current loading progress. This allows to create lightweight scenes that can act as custom loading screens. Otherwise, the launch loading screen will be shown if a scene is still loading when launched.
