@ -11,13 +11,13 @@ Crop and Claw 2 is being written with moddability and engine-agnosticism in mind
For example, the runtime loads the base game package it expects, then mods, then allows for listening to a mods directory outside of zip archives. To do all this, we need to be able to load various file formats (png, ogg, specialized non-Godot formats, etc) into the engine and convert them to usable assets. This is obnoxious because loading and searching for files is different depending on if you are loading from directories or zip archives, and you have to manually cascade through zips and directories to find override assets. What's worse is more complications are added when new sources of file data could be encountered, such as streaming assets directly from a server. In order to reduce the pains, these scripts help build a dynamic virtual file loader.
