+  Bastiaan Olij - I'm leaving this code commented out but in place so we can have a further discussion about this later on.
+  For loading the package file from the resource folder it makes more sense to make this call work in ProjectSettings::setup
+  instead of relying on changing the current working folder as is the case right now (see godot_main_osx.mm).
+  The problem is that when this function returns a value we try and load a project.godot file from this resources folder and
+  stop attempting to load anything else if that fails. That breaks our tools build.
+  One possible solution is to only apply this logic in a non-tools build with an ifdef block. 
+
+  For now however, just returning this to working condition.
