[Discussion] Asset repository

So there's some huge issues with our process:

• Everything is packed together manually, which has tons of errors due to manual copy errors
• PK3s are quite bad; their compression ratio is either too low or their decompression time is too slow for what is needed
• There's no central place to put things
• There's no easy way to patch things

So, I've got a few ideas:

• Use a shared Dropbox or something with Explorer integration. Create a script that builds the PK3s or whatever asset system we want
• Support more filetypes, like LZMA compression. Or maybe invent our own archive format.
• Create a system of "patching" PK3s through delta compression.
