Resource Preloader Node.
</brief_description>
<description>
This node is used to preload sub-resources inside a scene, so when the scene is loaded, all the resources are ready to use and can be retrieved from the preloader.
GDScript has a simplified [method @GDScript.preload] built-in method which can be used in most situations, leaving the use of [ResourcePreloader] for more advanced scenarios.
