Android Question Duping an app to make a new app

I copy the whole folder and rename all. Works since years. Best way to keep all clean. There are other ways, too like referencing for modules you use in lot of apps. But I like to keep it separated.

Thanks!

I do this aswell for several years.

Just copy the latest project folder, adjust the package name, adjust 1 app name variable used for several routines like sharing/leaderboard..., remove previous game specific code and start writing the new one.

Most of it remains the same as it is half a kind of template.

With the custom build actions it's even easier as you can seperate the assets, icons etc from the B4A project folder and do other trickery
(move font files from .\files to .\files\Special for IOS after syncing assets to name something) which makes cross development easier to handle
and always 100% right and clean of unneeded files.
