⚙️ Configuration documentation
Base Url -> Its the IP address of the Rider IDE instance you want to target ( localhost or 127.0.0.1 by default since you mainly want to target your own machine )
Port -> Its the port of the Rider IDE instance you want to target ( ⚠️ this should match the exposing port in the Expose Run/Debug plugin settings of your Rider IDE )
Execution Type -> Its the type of execution you want ( Officialy only debug is available for godot in GDScript, but run is also available for C# )
Config to Execute -> Its the name of the run/debug config you want to execute ( by default its Player GDScript, because its the one Rider with the Godot plugin set, but it can be changed, like the port it should match on both side )
