Got to finally play around with Godot's Inspector plugins. You can make some really cool tools with it.

It is really cool how Godot's multiplayer systems works. I finally got to understand how multiplayer authority and the MultiplayerSyncronizer visibility works. Multiplayer is both much easier and a bit harder than I expected. Now I'll go back to do what I should be doing.

I finally managed to understand how these radial multi-raycast suspension are supposed to work in Godot. Contrary to multi-rays down, this can give much more precise results with less work I believe.

Made a fun little demo yesterday because of 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞. With stencils in Godot, now that is really easy to make.

Finally updated my BIOS after 10 years with this PC I know it's silly, but my heartrate was kinda high during the whole time. Specially since I don't have an UPS and the electrical grid here has had some ups and downs last week. Hopefully it'll fix the BSOD I've been getting since updating NVIDIA.

Here's a quick video about some of the great new features in Godot 4.6. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYN5...

Another episode for the Godot Raycast Car Series is here! This time we'll try out shapecast wheels and fix a lot of the problems with the car. Here is the video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lecZ...

Made a debug curve visualizer for Godot to help showcase the actual values inside the curve. The graph class can choose if they want to draw the curve and background, so I can overlay each of the wheel points on top of each other like in the video.

Build some graph debug tools for Godot to help me visualize why things happens. It uses the Expressions class to evaluate code so I can quickly set it all up in the inspector to check stuff.

Who else gets annoyed when ProceduralSkyMaterial's sky and ground horizon colors doesn't match in Godot? Learning InspectorPlugins, the first thing I had to make is syncing these colors.

The root of all my problems... I've thought Godot had been giving me wonky trimesh collision generation. Now I know why....

Natural object placement with physics in the editor. Right now it simulates all rigidbodies in the scene. I think I'll add a filter to only simulate selected objects so you won't mess up your scene later. #godot

There is always something hidden behind meshes. Make sure to always scan things with your stencil shaders. #godot #stencilshader

Godot 4.5 is here! Here's some of my favorite features of this release. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZcM... #Godot #Godot4.5 #GodotNews

It's really fun playing around with stencil shaders in Godot 4.5 now. It's incredible how simple masks can help create some awesome new effects now. #Godot

Have you ever wonder how to draw textures in Godot? I've just made a new tutorial on how to make your very own paint system. Check it out! www.youtube.com/@octodemy #Godot #GodotTips

Got sidetracked while exploring how sub-viewports works in 2D. When I realized, I had made this. Had to make some funky code to take the photos of the background layer (which had bloom&brightness adjustments), the moving objects that didn't and also not screenshot the text. #Godot

While I was stress testing and playing around with procedural geometry in Godot, I found out you actually lose performance by calling floori() in gdscript. And since discarding the decimal point is exactly what I want, I guess I'll just divide it normally then. #GodotTips

Experimenting with custom StyleBox'es in Godot, I've made a Stacked StyleBox that is very useful to create buttons.

Here's all the tricks to using Godot's Drag and Drop system www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUR1...

Got everything I wanted done using Godot's drag and drop system. A tutorial will be coming out soon on how to use and solve all the problems I encountered along the way.

I fell into the drag and drop system rabbit hole. This is using the Godot's builtin drag drop solution. There are some limitations, but I've found workarounds for them. I'll make a quick video about it before I forget everything. #godot

Here's a little prototype I made last month that led to those couple of RTS tutorials I made. I was experimenting on how to code AI with state machines. #godot

Here's an quick overview on how to use the navmesh system in Godot. And a few tips to make your agents move correctly on difficult terrain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXEX...

Last week, I found out I was using Godot's navmesh settings completely wrong while trying to fix ramp corners. Now things finally makes more sense.

Here's a tutorial on how to make RTS-style selection in Godot. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnL0...

Playing around with RTS things now. Here's the unit selection working.

I make a lot of small projects that never see the light of day, so I'll post here what I'm currently doing just in case. Last month or so I was playing with making a physics raycast car. You can follow its progress and make your own with the tutorial series here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Mqm...

2D fake walls can be achieved with only tilemap layer's custom data.... kinda.

Released a video about some of the basics on how to start making your own FPS controller. Covers: - Basic movement - Moving platforms - Legs and Hands - Fix clipping and shadows - Basic shooting - Decals and hit particles www.youtube.com/watch?v=my6o...

Did you know? The last selected script files will have blue names. The more recent it is, the bluer its name will be. #Godot #GodotTips

I fell into the PICO-8 fantasy console rabbit hole. It's really fun making games with limitations. It has an incredible community. And the tutorial series by LazyDevs is such a great introduction.

Did you know that if you don't specify the inherited class Godot will use a RefCounted? If you want the most basic object, you need to use extends from Object. An Object needs to be manually freed with instance.free(). #godot #godottips

I can't believe it took me this long to finally understand how async coroutines works in Godot 4. #GodotTips A 'func' in Godot will be a coroutine if it has an 'await' inside it. Calling it without 'await' will create an async coroutine and will run the function without stopping the main code.

𝗚𝗼𝗱𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗶𝗽 You can use lambda functions while connecting signals to keep your callback's code nearby. Lambda don't need names, to declare a lambda simply use: 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗰(): # 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 #Godot #GodotTip #GodotTips

Godot Physics just doesn't work well with small objects. A little hack to improve this, is to increase the size of the CollisionShape and decrease the scale of the shape node. Or switch JoltPhysics, which works better for small objects. #Godot #GodotTips

If you ever switch to JoltPhysics and your Areas stopped working, remember to enable this option. If you need to use 'body_shape_entered', consider using Jolt. GodotPhysics can call duplicated signals and break your code.(body_entered seems to works fine, only shape has this bug) #Godot #GodotTips

Have you ever saw strange light artifacts when zooming out? That's a bad auto-lod generation. It can mess up smooth surfaces normal at low detail. - You can enable "Ensure Tangents" to fix it. - Change the bias to only use them at distance. - Completely disable generated-LOD. #Godot #GodotTips

Godot doesn't have a "disable node" option yet. But you can achieve a similar effect by hiding the node, and disabling its process function. #Godot #GodotTips

Can't find the "Editor Settings"? Missing some menu options in MacOS? In Godot 4.3, they might be now inside the "Godot Menu" to follow macOS conventions. #Godot #GodotTips

Here's a tip if you ever need to set a script from code: You can find the script's path with the `get_global_class_list()` and searching for its class name. Now your code won't break even if you move the script to another folder as the class_name remains the same #Godot #GodotTips

In Godot 4, if your 2D shader's noise texture is not working, make sure it has the 'repeat_enable' property. Remember this when porting old Godot 3 shaders to Godot 4. #Godot #GodotTips

Here's what you can do when you just want autocomplete to work in gdscript. #Godot #GodotTip

Its slowing growing... #gamedev #godot

Playing around prototyping games. Does that remind you of something? #gamedev #godot
