Create [Directories]:

• Creates a root folder alongside nested sub-folders, using the Root-Directory and Sub-Directories fields supplied. The Root-Directory field can also contain nested directories by separating with a slash symbol: Project/root
• You must supply the Sub-Directories along with their Root-Directory(optional), since this operation mostly focuses on creating the Sub-Directories.
• Leaving Root-Directory field empty still creates the supplied Sub-Directories in relative to Asset's folder: Assets/[Sub-Directories_supplied]

Delete [Sub Directories]:

• Deletes only the Sub-Directories supplied leaving out their Root-Directory.
• If you supplied a Root-Directory such as: Project/ and Sub-Directories: Models, Scripts, this process will only delete the Sub-Directories: Models, Scripts, omitting the Root-Directory: Project/ along with other Sub-Directories you did not supply in the Sub-Directories field.
• You must supply the Sub-Directories along with their Root-Directory(optional), since this operation mostly focuses on deleting the Sub-Directories.
• Leaving the Root-Directory field empty still deletes any Sub-Directories it finds that is relative to Asset's folder: Assets/[Sub-Directories_found]

Delete [Root Directory]:

• Deletes the Root-Directory alongside Sub-Directories supplied.
• If you supplied a nested Root-Directory such as Project/Models, the deletion process will terminate at Project/ while deleting Models/ along with its contents.
• If you supplied: Projects/, this process deletes the Root-Directory: Projects/ along with any Sub-Directories it may contain. Hence terminating at Assets/
• Therefore, you may leave the Sub-Directories field empty, since this operation focuses on deleting only the Root-Directory. It is impossible to delete the Assets/ directory.

Create [ASMDEF]:

• Creates an asmdef file in the path supplied at the Root-Directory field.
• If you intend to use a custom path, start with: Assets/[your_desired_path]

Notes

• The operations above can also be applied to already existing directories in your project.

• Toggle on or off Recursive delete, to control how to delete parent directories containing nested directories/subdirectories.

• Ensure no slash symbol: /\ terminates the Root-Directory field: Project/Scripts/ instead Project/Script

• To remove this package completely(leaving no trace), navigate to: Racer > DirTool > Remove package
