I can see how you can specify as password when using ExtractZip() to extract files from a zip file

How do I specify a password when creating a Zip file?

Would appear to be missing functionality Blink. Same when trying to add a file existing with AddZipEntry().

The only password support seems to be in extracting.

I thought you had to zip it yourself outside agk...just checked and using the winrar app, I can set a password before exporting to zip. I've never used the zip commands before in agk. Do you need to build zips during runtime or is it just to keep your media locked up?

To create a ZIP in a runtime could make sense if you create some export data in a tool or if you game has savestates you don't want other to mess around with
another usecase could be network data protection for a multiplayer or something like that
