One of the problems with being an engine developer is that often you want the latest changes you've done to the engine to be pulled into the project you're working on. Historically, the way that you would do this is by bumping the editor version in editor_version.go and then loading the project. This will trigger the out of date popup and ask you to replace the source in the project. This is a bit annoying when you're doing incremental changes to test and not releasing a whole new editor version.

So I've fixed this problem by adding the ability to trigger the engine replace popup by holding Shift+CTRL when opening a project from the project select screen. This will do the exact same flow as an editor version bump without the need to waste your time messing with bumping the editor version.
