Seamlessly clone unity projects for use in multiple instances.
The tool is used to create clone of your Unity projects for opening them in multiple instances of Unity editor. Currently it has two methods: File System Watcher which continuesly synchronizes the projects directories and copies all the files to the cloned directory, AND, creating symbolic links to the project directories so the Unity editor always references to the original files instead.
UnityProjectCloner uses FileSystemWatcher class of System.IO and continuously monitors the specified project directory. Any changes made to the original project directory are reflected in the cloned directory (the performance depends on your system and type of the disk and its r/w speed). The program also synchronizes the project directory at startup to make sure all the files are synced in both directories before initializing FileSystemWatcher. A notification icon is used to indicate the state of the program. Please don't mind the icon of the program, also, I created this program just for personal use but posting it here just in case anyone else needs it.
UnityProjectCloner can also create symbolic links to your project instead.
