Change WAR directory in Eclipse

I am using the google-plugin-eclipse add-on and the latest gcloud code. I have the Java version installed. On the old plugin you could change the war directory but on the new one I cannot. I am using Grunt and Bower and inject several dependancies. In the past I had a "dev" directory that I would use grunt build on to minimize the number of files and the files themselves into the "war" directory. While developing locally - I would change the eclipse settings to use the "dev" directory and then before publish I would build and test the war directory and publish from there. Screenshots below of old and new plugin settings. Any ideas how to change so I don't have to play a folder rename game?

The new Cloud Tools for Eclipse (CT4E) is based on the Eclipse Web Tools Project (WTP). WTP uses a set of rules called the deployment assembly to assemble a set of source files and directories into a WAR. WTP provides a project properties page for changing the deployment assembly rules. You can have multiple source directories combined into the same location.

So you can adjust your project's deployment assembly to add your war directory and have its contents to be deployed into the WAR root.
