SceneDirector - The Swiss Army knife of scene scripting and management

Introduction​

SceneDirectory is meant to become the Swiss Army knife of atom state management and scene scripting.

It's based on my personal ScenePlugin, which was used to drive the DildoLanguage demo scene, as well as all my personal scenes. But it had no UI to speak of and was never intended for public release. This is a complete rewrite, based on similar ideas, with proper UI. Hopefully you will...

Since the documentation for this might become quite long, to avoid spamming the Overview too much, I will reserve few posts in here and link them later from the docs, as they are updated. Hope you don't mind!

I am not a developer so I can't give any input. :(
It does seems powerful though.
Hehe yeah, explaining what's it all about and what one can do with the plugin will be challenge. I will probably have to create several instructional videos and scenes once it's more mature. Even then, I am not sure how many creators will adapt it for their scenes, if any at all.

To be honest I created it mostly for myself, since I hate fiddling with many logic bricks and tons of triggers connecting them together with other plugins to script simple scene behavior. And my previous plugin which I used for all my scenes had no UI at all ; which for a nerd like me is not always bad, setting up things in JSON can be quite often much faster than clicking in UI. But it started showing its limits. It still can do much more than SceneDirector though, the road ahead is a long one... (although the transition and sub-state idle animation system is already way more powerful in SceneDirector)
