Hi there!
Good question! So if your friend goes to work in the scene but you're already in there, they will get a notification saying that you're working in there and that it's best to not with a dialogue box.
Also if they go into there for testing purposes maybe with the intention to see what something would be like while working in there if you publish a new version they'll get a notification informing them that you've published a new version.
If however you just both work on it at the same time and publish it one after the other the latest save will be by whoever published last, not containing the other person's changes. As the game isn't aware of those updates as they were local to the person working on them.
It's why it's then good to work in elements that get placed into the scene, so people only need to edit the master scene when placing a new element or using the update mode to update an existing element in the scene, or to check things work well together.
It's also why version notes on your saves are your best friend (or at least that's how I think of them) in the version notes when you publish your save you could explain what you've added/fixed/removed so your friend can have an idea of what's changed without having to guess.
Hope this helps a little!
Thanks,
Cat
