I have started using the new permissions tab under the game settings. I am really excited about this feature, as it is very useful to someone with a large and growing team. There are a few ways, however, that I think it could be improved.
To start, when I give a group role access to edit a certain place, those under that role should be able to see that place from studio under the group games tab. Even if they don’t have edit access to all group games. This would improve my team’s work flow.
Secondly, when I give a group role access to a place under the permissions tab, I have noticed that those who got access this way cannot see animations created by the group. In order for them to see animations created by the group, they have to have full access to edit all games. I have tested this with 3 different teammates. This is the case, even though they have access to edit and create group items.
These would be really big improvements for this awesome new feature you have added. I would like to rely on it more as I grow my studio, so that my devs only have access to what they need.
I believe at RDC they discussed reworking the develop tab. These would be some great things to keep in mind during that rework. Small changes like these have very big positive effects on workflow.
