* 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
* Host of a multiplayer game is now automatically migrated to a new one, picked from the list of players, with the lowest ping.
* A new condition is available "Is host migrating" in order to adapt the game while the migration happens. This can take up to a few seconds. If your game has no interactions between players, you can leave it like this. Otherwise, you may want to pause the game while the host is changing!
* A new action is available to configure the lobby game to end instead of migrating when the host leaves. (This is useful if you prefer the host not changing during your game)
* Actions can be used at the beginning of the game or a scene, to define scene and global variables as synchronised by another player, or not synchronised at all
- 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.
* This means expressions like `MyStructure[SomeIndexVariable]` will work properly for a structure if `SomeIndexVariable` is a string variable. Gdevelop now properly uses the type of the variable/property/parameter (to avoid considering what's inside the brackets as a number if it's a string). Remember to declare your variables in the variables editor so that you can use them in expressions.
* This removes toJSON method on gdjs.Variable. This was just introduced in beta 111, if you're using it, please use toJSObject instead and JSON.stringify.
* In the list of variables (of the scene, of an object or global variables), you can now specify the type of the variable: number, text, boolean, array or structure.
* Boolean variables can be "true" or "false. They can have their values checked with conditions, and updated with actions. They are a good way to store information about if something is enabled or not (is an item equipped, is something selected, etc...).
* Array variables can contain multiple values, indexed by a number. New values, including any kind of variables, can be appended to an array during the game. Arrays can also have a value removed, and using the event "For each child variable", you can run conditions and actions for each value that is present in the array.
* Boolean and arrays are also supported when you transform a variable from or to the JSON format - which is ideal to send web requests, read configuration files or store any kind of arbitrary data.
* Finally, note that array values can themselves be arrays, structures or any variable. This can be useful to construct advanced logic. You can also access arrays (as well as any variable) from JavaScript code block events.
