Suggestion: Collaboration Projects
-
This doesn't sound easy to make, but it would be VERY awesome if more that one person could edit a project at the same time, like a cloud project or something, similar to Google Docs or the new iOS 10 collaboration stuff. The only way to collaborate now would be to keep sending a project between people and only 1 person could edit at a time.

This has actually been a dream of ours since starting with Gamepress.
Its just really hard to do, and we don't have the resources.
Google has hundreds of engineers devoted to just google docs alone.We're a team of 3, and of the 3 only 1 is a full time programmer.
Still a dream we're working towards.

Why don't you just make a system where it shares a backup between 2 users, it won't be exactly what we want but it definitely is a start.

There are 2 problems with this.
-
what happens if 2 people are working on the same project at the same time. What's to stop you from deleting a object, when the person you're collaborating with is currently using that project?
-
how do you merge these ow 2 seperate projects into one single project.
-
-
@Murtaza you could do something like how backups work and lock the project for editing until it's done, although then you might have problems where people forget to unlock it...
-
At that point you might as well do it your self by emailing the project back and forth.
If (when) we doncollobrstjon, we want it to be more seamless than that. Takes a lot more time, but the solution will be better.
