What's new in this version:

GDevelop 5.0.0 Beta 135
Improved:
Introduce the "Wait X seconds" action:
- This action allow to wait for a few seconds before continuing to run the next actions and sub-events
- It is perfect to create cut scenes, advanced logic or just run things progressively without relying on timers. In a lot of cases, it's simpler and faster to use this new action.
- The action remembers the picked objects: it works like an usual event, but run the actions (and sub-events) a bit later in time. While the action wait, other events continue to run as usual.
- Thanks to @arthuro555 for the ground work and follow up on this new feature

Improvements of editor screens:
- Redesign of the variables editor
- Each row should be easier to read in a glance
- You can now collapse collection variables for a better readability
- Reorder and move of variables is now available with drag n drop
- You can now undo and redo changes
- Paste one or more variables at any level of depth you want
- Search in the names and values of each variables with a filter effect
- Remove slowing aspects of points and collision masks editors
- Make coordinates inputs more user friendly
- Removal of unnecessary decimal places
- Do not replace empty value with 0 to allow whole value erasing
- Better understanding of which point is which
- Add possibility to select a point in the list so that it is highlighted in the preview (same for hovered points)
- Allow drag n drop for custom collision mask to reorder points
- Open image preview at a zoom factor that is adapted to the sprite size so that one doesn't have to zoom at each opening.
- Improve the effects list
- Effects are applied in order and different orders may give different results, so ordering them is important. You can now do it with drag n drop.
- Also, when renaming effects, a few checks are now done in order to prevent unexpected results.

UI/UX improvements:
- Add gallery in the asset store to better understand available asset packs
- Improve design of the alerts/messages and make margins consistent in the app
- Add tutorials in app
- Added dismissable tutorials in events sheet, variable editors and object variable tab, add object dialog, sprite animations tab, export game for web tab, add new extension dialog.
- Added a tutorial button
- Make anchor behavior more intuitive
- Anchor an edge of an object to set its distance from the window edges. Single anchor will not stretch the object anymore; you will need to set anchors to object's opposite edges for this effect.
- Add a button to switch between legacy and new behavior.
- Display all autocompletions in the expression editor when listing them
- The list is not truncated anymore so you can scroll or use the arrow keys to browse all the completions (useful to see everything: objects, expressions, but also the available easing for tweens, etc...)

Leaderboards:
- Add new settings to leaderboards
- Add parameter to control number of entries to display
- Add possibility to set a default leaderboard, displayed on Liluo game page by default
- Add possibility to reject scores that are a better than a value you can tune

Other:
- Upgrade the underlying runtime running the desktop app, and exported desktop games, to Electron 18
- This brings improved performance and compatibility for the desktop app with Windows, macOS and Linux
- In particular, tilemap performance should be greatly improved both in the scene editor, the preview and exported games on Linux
- This should also improve performance of both the editor and games on macOS when running on Apple Silicon (M1 CPUs)
- Thanks to @nilaymaj for the ground work on this upgrade
- Allow to choose installation directory when installing GDevelop on Windows
- Also allow to choose if GDevelop must be installed system-wide or just for the user
- Allow webp images to be selected for object resources, and webm for videos
- These formats are providing better compression than PNG or MP4, but they might not work on older devices - be sure to double check if the devices or browsers of your audience support them
