Play Settings Window
Play settings provide some testing configurations for playing games through the editor, in addition to providing access to the local player's save data and log console.
Play settings can be accessed through Window > Play Settings Window, or Ctrl+Shift+L (L for log).
Note that all of these options are local to the editor, and are not saved as part of map data.
Resolution
Sets the height and width of the Play Window. The Play Window must be closed for a new resolution to be applied.
A standard 16:9 resolution is recommended for testing landscape games (such as 1080 x 1920 or 720 x 1280). A resolution of 576 x 1024 is recommended for testing portrait games.

Other Settings

Simulate Leader Board Group

When checked, trigger errors will be thrown as exceptions with a full stack trace. This is useful for gathering context while debugging (ie finding the error line number).

Vscode Path
Add your Visual Studio Code install path here for non-default install locations to open the game's triggers in vscode with the "Open Lua Script" button.
Save Data
Displays an editable table of the player's save data. While the save data is updated live, the game must be resarted via the play button for any manual edits to take effect.
