Good to Know

File Format

Changes are saved in a custom, human-readable file format called .ovdf.
(The .ovdf file format of is subject to change during the beta)

The default save location can be adjusted in the Visual Designer preferences.
(Odin will find the files as long as they're inside the asset folder.)

The file format is designed to be shared via source control.
