📝 Aliases

What are Aliases?

Aliases are a way to give a file a different name.
For example, you could have a file named song1.ogg and give it the alias MyFirstSong.
This way, the save file stores MyFirstSong instead of song1.ogg, which makes it easier to change the file name later.
For example, if you want to rename song1.ogg to super_cool_song.ogg, you can change the reference in the alias file from song1.ogg to super_cool_song.ogg and the save file will still work.

Creating Aliases

Files can be aliased by placing a .aliases file inside ./Assets.
The file must contain a list of aliases in the format file=alias. Example:

song1.ogg=MyFirstSong subfolder/song2.ogg=MySecondSong path/to/song3.ogg=MyThirdSong

Left is file name, right is alias.
The path is relative to ./Assets.
