In our final episode of this series, Senior Engine Programmer Mike Beach and Lead Engine Programmer Michael Noland were joined by Product Specialist Victor Brodin as they explored the Game Features plugin and the Modular Gameplay plugin. The plugins provide a framework to help developers create standalone features for their projects. As discussed during the livestream, building with these plugins keeps your project’s codebase clean and readable, and avoids accidental interactions or dependencies.
