[Suggestion] Make Module Button

The module system (aka making new directories for code) is incredibly confusing at first glance. I have read through it more than once and still don’t really understand it. The pages for it list files and code snippets I can’t even find in my directories to begin with.

It would be nice to have an automated module generator so that creating code directories properly can be done. (Try looking at ShooterGame’s code, the directory system scares me and trying to replicate the module files continually leads to compilation errors.)

This is a terrible workflow, but might be a useful process to understand how modules are defined. I haven’t tested it, so I’m not certain it’s this simple.

Try using the Plugin creator to create a Plugin which will generate a module for that plugin:

  1. Edit > Plugins
  2. New Plugin
  3. Blank Plugin

Then move the new module back to the game.

Having a Create Module button would be a much better workflow.
