What are Skins?

[WAYLIVES]

Hello everyone I have been working at TurboWarp for a long time and have seen such an extension "Skins" for a long time, but I have never understood what can be created using this extension. Please help me understand this extension! Why is it needed?

yes (they can't be seen in the costumes tab). basically, skins are a way to create costumes from, say, files hosted on the web, without permanently making them a costume in the project (and so you can delete them anytime, in case you have to display many of them over a project's runtime)

But then why do you need this extension, because you won't see these skins anyway?

you can see them on the stage if you switch a sprite to them, just not in the costumes list (because they're temporary)

The documentation should probably be updated so it is more clear
