What is this package.json file?

[Magusalfador]

Hi all! I´ve been working with my project for a time now and I never seen this file "Package.json", it appeared on the root folder, where the game.rpgproject and the index.html are. I see those files everyday so thats why im sure that .json file wasn't there, i dont want to delete it until i know what is it for.

Thank you =)

It's something that appears when you deploy a project for others to play. It became a requirement for play testing now in Version 1.6.1 so don't delete it. It contains the settings of your game.

Oh, I see. Thank you very much!

Hello, what do we mean with "settings"? The icon, screen resolution, the cache of a part of it perhaps, start in fullscreen or how to options are configurated? Because when I replace the file with one from a clean project it updates itself, and I'm stuck again with my old icon.

@Arend Galenkamp of course it updates itself, and it contains settings that have nothing to do with your game settings, it is more like which file of the engine is found in which folder. And no, that does NOT mean icon file...

Might get a bit off-topic here but is there any file that affects the icon expect for the icon.png in the icon folder?
I've already made a thread for this, just stumbled across this one while googling for an answer.
