Allowed Characters in Defold?

Questions
1

In Android Studio the characters used for file names are strict. If I remember correctly, you can not use space, hyphen or anything else except English language alphanumerics (letters and numbers).

How about in Defold? I tried adding an .ogg file with space and I could not use it as it did not show up when adding a trigger for sound. In the file name I removed anything that was not alphanumeric and then it was possible to use the music file.

It’s a good idea to never use spaces in filenames or paths if you can help it.

Otherwise avoid any special characters prohibited by any of the target platforms Defold supports and it should be fine. Generally <>:"/\|?*
