  do you really need to define so many dependencies?
  I barely even use it, honestly, as all libs are initialized in scenes and all scenes are initialized in main.lua, there is really little need for dependencies, apart from some cases, like using some lib in global config or init file.
  
  But on your point, yes, we would need an improvement there, but not sure what exactly yet.
  you mean same order and folders?

  I have to agree with @ar2sawseen, you shouldn't really need many (if any) dependencies.

  Since that time when I had to scramble to get a new version of Scrappy Cat up on the app store because of a broken dependency, I am now always adding them manually. I normally trip up on extended classes, and for this game there are few classes that are not extended. It can work in Gideros Player, but when exported with XCode you get a crash.
  
  Yeah, it would be cool to have the same folders as in the main project view, so it's consistent.

  I've always found the Gideros dependencies list a bit unecessary TBH. It might be better to have no automatic dependencies and just force the programmer to use "require" everywhere. That is more flexible. Would it be good to have a simple switch to turn off auto dependencies?

  If removing dependencies is possible, I'm definitely for that option. I'd much prefer to do it in code, just like the project properties.
