must be written within quotes if it contains spaces or special characters.)
The output path is relative to the project path or absolute;
it does not respect the directory the command was invoked from.
You can also configure it to export only the PCK or ZIP file, allowing
a single export to be used with multiple Godot executables.
This takes place if the target name ends with ``.pck`` or ``.zip``.
It is often useful to combine the ``--export`` flag with the ``--path``
flag, and to create a dedicated export preset for automated export:
You can also configure it to export *only* the PCK or ZIP file, allowing
a single exported main pack file to be used with multiple Godot executables.
When doing so, the export preset name must still be specified on the command line:
.. code-block:: shell
godot --path path/to/project --export "pck" game_name.pck
godot --export-pack "Windows Desktop" some_name.pck
It is often useful to combine the ``--export`` flag with the ``--path``

the command:
.. code-block:: shell

from the command line.
