Description

https://manual.gamemaker.io/monthly/en/GameMaker_Language/GML_Reference/File_Handling/File_Handling.htm

According to the manual, when accesing included files for iOS, we do not need to include the folder as part of the path. However, if we have two files with the same name but different paths, if we do not include the path, it is ambiguous about which file will be loaded.

We would like to the manual to clarify that even though it is not "needed" to include the path, doing so is fine and allows correct access to files with the same names but different paths.
