An update to GameMaker has broken compatibility in several ways: * It now requires a "type tag field" at the start of applicable JSON records. * The name is expected to follow the "type tag field" as a "%Name" field, in addition to the regular "name" field. * The JSON fields are now required to be ordered alphabetically (case-insentively). Other minor differences include: * The "tags" field is left out when there are no tags. * There is no longer a space included after JSON field names. * Some new fields were added. Also, the plugin now uses SaveFile again rather than QFile, because it seems that recent GameMaker versions will reload fine when using safe writing of files. Closes mapeditor#4132
As of 2024, GameMaker is no longer called "GameMaker Studio 2.3".
