Backend updates (0.3.0)

ℹ️ An update to the core codebase to bring it more in-line with recent releases.

Custom Ordering Added (0.1.3)

A mostly admin update, added 1 new feature and cleaned up for core code in some places.

Order Attribute

You can now add a custom attribute to an multi scene interface implementation to define a custom execution order for the method. This works in the same way that the script execution order works with 0 being the default, negitive numbers will be before the default, positive will be after the default. If you don't define a order for a method it will be set to 0 in the order by default and run in normal hierarchy order.

Just add [MultiSceneOrdered] to use this system on a method.
Use [MultiSceneOrdered(x)] to use custom ordering for this method, x being the order position you want it to run in.

Minor Update (0.1.1)

• Added editor buttons to multi scene manager to allow a scene group to be loaded in the editor at the push of a button, rather than having to do it manually.
• Fixed some minor issues in the multi scene manager that I found while using the package in a project.

First Release (0.1.0)

Summary

The first release version of this package. The readme/docs will be updated soon to better explain how to use this if you have just stumble upon this repo. This is still in development and bound to have stuff missing so feel free to let me know anything you think might be handy.
