In a nutshell

This package focuses on tracking GUIDs across a project.


How it works

  • Once imported it starts with scanning the entire project looking for GUIDs. The process is quite fast though. It shouldn't take long even on large projects.
  • Once the lookup table is built, it powers an extension in the project window, showing whether a given asset is referenced or not.
  • A Reference Inspector view is also available, allowing you to see exactly where a given asset is used.

Performance

The codebase has been optimized to minimize resource usage and reduce the overall performance impact on the editor.


Configuration

Users can configure which files should be excluded from the search and how many CPU threads the search engine can utilize.


Background

Originally developed to meet my own needs, I later realized this tool could be useful for others as well.
