How-To: Delete Saves & Open Common Maps
Goal: use the plugin's two development toolbar helpers - a Save Game deleter and a Common Maps opener - both added to the Level Editor Play toolbar.
Prerequisites
CrimsonEditorUtilities enabled. Both buttons are hidden while a Play-In-Editor session is running.
1. Delete save games
The Delete Save Game dropdown lists everything under Saved/SaveGames/. Delete a single .sav file or an entire sub-directory in one click - no file browser needed. Toggle the whole button on or off at Project Settings -> Crimson -> Crimson Editor Utilities -> `bEnableSaveGameDeleter`.

The button is disabled and hidden while a Play-In-Editor session is active (
HasNoPlayWorld() gate) - deleting saves mid-session would corrupt the running game's state.2. Open a common map
Populate Project Settings -> Crimson -> Crimson Editor Utilities -> `Common Editor Maps` with the maps you open most. The Common Maps toolbar dropdown then opens any of them in one click. Leave the list empty and the button stays hidden.

With at least one map configured, the Common Maps button appears; picking an entry opens that level in the editor.
