	<brief_description>
		A script that is executed when exporting the project.
	</brief_description>
	<description>
		[EditorExportPlugin]s are automatically invoked whenever the user exports the project. They can be used to modify scenes and resources during project export based on what [url=$DOCS_URL/tutorials/export/feature_tags.html]Feature Tags[/url] are set. For each plugin, [method _export_begin] is called at the beginning of the export process and then [method _export_file] is called for each exported file.
		Register a [EditorExportPlugin] by creating a new [EditorPlugin] and calling its [method EditorPlugin.add_export_plugin] method.

			<param index="0" name="platform" type="EditorExportPlatform" />
			<param index="1" name="features" type="PackedStringArray" />
			<description>
				Return [code]true[/code] if this plugin will customize resources based on the platform and features used.
				When enabled, [method _get_customization_configuration_hash] and [method _customize_resource] will be called and must be implemented.

			<description>
				Return [code]true[/code] if this plugin will customize scenes based on the platform and features used.
				When enabled, [method _get_customization_configuration_hash] and [method _customize_scene] will be called and must be implemented.
				[b]Note:[/b] [method _customize_scene] will only be called for scenes that have been modified since the last export.

			<return type="Resource" />
			<param index="0" name="resource" type="Resource" />
			<param index="1" name="path" type="String" />
			<description>
				Customize a resource. If changes are made to it, return the same or a new resource. Otherwise, return [code]null[/code]. When a new resource is returned, [param resource] will be replaced by a copy of the new resource.
				The [param path] argument is only used when customizing an actual file, otherwise this means that this resource is part of another one and it will be empty.
				Implementing this method is required if [method _begin_customize_resources] returns [code]true[/code].
				[b]Note:[/b] When customizing any of the following types and returning another resource, the other resource should not be skipped using [method skip] in [method _export_file]:
				- [AtlasTexture]
				- [CompressedCubemap]
				- [CompressedCubemapArray]
