Copy Files On Export

Copy Files On Export is an addon for Godot 4 which allows you to define a set of files and directories which will be copied alongside the project when it is exported, optionally filterable by feature! Useful if you want to include a README or other files for your users without having to copy the files manually or set up automation via external means.

To configure the addon, head to Project → Project Settings → Copy Files On Export. The table in that section defines the file and directory mappings which will be copied to the export location. Click "Add" to add a new mapping. Then press "Select" and navigate to the file or directory you wish to include in your export destination. Then for "Path in export location" type a valid path which defines the destination of the mapping. The following formats should work:

* some-file.txt
* foo/bar/some-file.txt
* /foo/bar/some-file.txt
* ./foo/bar/some-file.txt
* foo/bar/baz (for directories)
* etc.

If you want to limit the mapping to one or more specific feature tags, you can enter them comma-separated in the "Limit to features" field.

Directories will be copied recursively - their contents will be copied in their entirety. For your convenience, ".import" and ".uid" files will be skipped.

On MacOS, the data will be placed alongside the *.app. Android and iOS exports are currently untested, therefore, "officially" unsupported. I'll appreciate any test results you can post!
