Made a Save system with slots in #godot. Should I make a small tutorial on how to implement this?

A save system that supports multiple save slots. In the picture you can see two save slots for different characters.

A bit late to the party, but here is my #screenshotsaturday. Hope I can finish the game before the end of #GoedWareGameJam

My #GoedWareGameJam entry is starting to look like something. My first time making a #rts, hope I can finish it on time.

Creating a system on #godot that will allow me to use a gridmap to place more complex scenes then just what a MeshLibrary allows.
#gamedev #indiedev #godotengine
Used a MeshLibrary to place elements in a map. Different tiles will be replaced with different Scenes. Tiles were replaced with scenes that will allow for custom logic to run. In this case, add or remove crystals as a in game resource. Code that replaces tiles from TileMesh with more complex scenes, by running custom code based on type of tile. Code: Godot ``` extends GridMap const CRISTAL_TILE = preload("res://Gameplay/Tiles/cristal_tile.tscn") var cristal_tiles = [] const EMPTY_CRISTAL_TILE_ITEM := 0 const TILE_ITEM := 2 const FULL_CRISTAL_TILE_ITEM := 3 func _ready() -> void: var cells := get_used_cells() for cell: Vector3i in cells: var cell_item := get_cell_item(cell) match cell_item: EMPTY_CRISTAL_TILE_ITEM: place_cristal(cell) FULL_CRISTAL_TILE_ITEM: place_cristal(cell, true) ```

Just finished the #blender modular dungeon from @gamedevtv.bsky.social . I'll probably revisit this later, but now I want to keep on progressing as fast as possible, cause what I really want to dive into is animation.

Have you tried tiagojdf.itch.io/beyond-regret ? Comments like this make my #gamedev journey so much richer ^^
#indiedev
A comment by Two119 about the game Beyond Regret: This is beautiful, more of a poem than a game in many ways. Things like it are rare nowadays, where all people want is quick entertainment and "fun" with no deeper meaning or value whatsoever. No matter what rating you get, it is still one of the most wonderful entries to this jam.

It's not much, but it's honest work. @gamedevtv.bsky.social Finally taking the time to learn some #blender

Just finished downloading and will definitely give it a try, but I must say the fact the Resolve Manuel has a measly 4046 pages surprised me xD

Forgot to upload a #screenshotsaturday , so here it is. Working on my tutorial. This project is taking longer than expected, but it is also being a blast to work on. Might try to implement 2 levels instead of just 1.

Quite happy with how easy it is to create a sequence of sounds to be played one after the other (for example footsteps) using this code on #godotengine.
#gamedev #indiedev
Godot code for playing sequence of sounds and example on how to use it in the editor: class_name EntityAudioPlayer extends AudioStreamPlayer3D ## Contains all sound files used. Each key par should be the name you want to use when calling the file and the value the audio stream you want to play. @export var sound_files: Dictionary[String, AudioStream] = {} ## Contains sequences of sounds. For example, for walking you might want to play 2 different footsteps. Each key par should be the name you want to use when calling the sequence and the value is the name of the sounds to be played in order. @export var sequences: Dictionary[String, Array] var step: int = 0 func play_sequence(sequence_name: String) -> void: # Can't type this array since we can't use nested types for the dictionary var sequence: Array = sequences[sequence_name] if self.playing: return step = (step + 1) % sequence.size() var sound_name: String = sequence[step] var sound: AudioStream = sound_files[sound_name] #self.pitch_scale = 1 + randf_range(0.08*(speed-5),0.08*(speed-5) + .1) play_whole_sound(sound_name) func play_whole_sound(sound: String) -> AudioStreamPlayer3D: if self.playing: await self.finished self.stream = sound_files[sound] self.play() return self

Needed to determine where the player is in the field of sight of the horse. Came up with this little snippet:
#gamedev #indiedev #godotengine
Godot code: ## Returns the angle in radians between the facing direction of one node and the position of another node. This angle is calculated in the XZ plane. func get_field_of_sight_angle_to(node_1: Node3D, node_2: Node3D) -> float: var direction_to_node_2: Vector3 = node_1.position.direction_to(node_2.position) direction_to_node_2.y = 0 var node_1_forward_direction: Vector3 = get_forward_direction_xz(node_1) node_1_forward_direction.y = 0 return node_1_forward_direction.angle_to(direction_to_node_2) ## Returns a normalized vector of the forward facing direction of a node in the XZ plane func get_forward_direction_xz(node_1: Node3D) -> Vector3: var forward: Vector3 = node_1.global_transform.basis.z # Get the forward direction (negative Z axis) forward.y = 0 # Set the Y component to zero to project onto the XZ plane return forward.normalized()

TIMBER!
Yes, this is exactly the expected behavior, why do you ask?

Got my first positive review on Beyond Regret, a visual novel done in #godotengine using Dialogic 2. I am so happy right now 🎉
#gamedev #indiedev
Comment by abody2d: I just tried again, deleted the cache with (Ctrl+ F5) and it worked ! I really enjoyed the game and tbf it really moved me a lot and it got me, everything about it is just perfect and it gave me lots of flashbacks and things to consider in life. I really appreciate the effort you put in it, I was amazed that the only typo was "you made me us hot chocolate" in the whole game, the music, the heartbeat and the old character recalling all these beautiful memories is nothing but a masterpiece. keep up the good work and thanks for sharing this experience.

Looks like it does :D
Example of typed dictionary in the godot editor UI. A variable test with type Dictionary[int, bool] shows a selector for a int and a selector for a boolean to generate new key value pairs.

Love that in #godotengine 4.4 (dev) I can finally use typed dictionaries.
Godot 4.4 code block, containing: enum Keys { SHIFT, SQUARE, } var textures: Dictionary[Keys, Texture2D] = { Keys.SHIFT: KEYBOARD_SHIFT_ICON_OUTLINE, Keys.SQUARE: PLAYSTATION_BUTTON_SQUARE_OUTLINE, } func update_key(key: Keys) -> void: action_key_sprite.texture = textures[key]

Currently doing a poc in #godotengine of a #game where you need to approach a #horse quietly and tame it (you need to keep your balance as the horse tries to make you fall).

I know someone who always refers to #chatgpt as "chato" (boring in Portuguese). I think I'm going to steal that.

Really enjoying the dialogic 2 plugin for #godotengine. There is a bit of a learning curve, but so far I have been able to do everything I wanted with it. Even managed to use a particle system as portrait and animate it with code.
