Duplicate function folders

GDevelop general Feature requests
1

It would be quite useful to have the ability to duplicate custom function folders, not just individual Action, Expressions and Conditions within Extensions. It can be a little tedious if I am making similar logic to need to copy each element one by one, being able to copy/paste or duplicate entire folders would be a great help

Please can you take a screenshot of one or your extension function list where you had to duplicate a function folder by hand?

There is no option to copy or duplicate

youd be correct! there is no way to do that.

Sure, but what I’m asking is a screenshot of 2 folders:

  • the original one
  • the one where you pasted every function one by one

Huh why would that be relevant?

This is a feature request for copy/paste/duplicate functionality for function folders.

I need to understand why you need it in order to prioritize it and find the best solution to answer the need.
By “why you need it”, I don’t mean your suggestion of solution: “duplicating folders” but why you happened to want to duplicate folders in the first place.

In this specific instance I have two features that are almost functionally identical but with differences, where it’s significantly easier to duplicate them and make the minor alterations rather than create them from scratch. I had to copy these one by one

Thanks for the explanation.
