GDScript is a dynamically typed scripting language made specifically for
|
||||
free and open source game engine Godot. GDScript's syntax is similar to
|
||||
Python's. Its main advantages are ease of use and tight integration with
|
||||
the engine. It's a perfect fit for game development.
|
||||
|
||||
## Basics

# Override functions
|
||||
# By a convention built-in overridable functions start with an underscore,
|
||||
# but in practice you can override virtually any function.
|
||||
|
||||
# _init is called when object gets initialized
|
||||
# This is the object's constructor.
|
||||
func _init():
|
||||
# Initialize object's internal stuff here.
|
||||
pass
|
||||
|
||||
# _ready gets called when script's node and
|
||||
# its children have entered the scene tree.
|
||||
func _ready():
|
||||
pass
|
||||
|
||||
# _process gets called on every frame.
|
||||
func _process(delta):
|
||||
# The delta argument passed to this function is a number of seconds,
|
||||
# which passed between the last frame and the current one.
|
||||
print("Delta time equals: ", delta)
|
||||
|
||||
# _physics_process gets called on every physics frame.
|
||||
# That means delta should be constant.
|
||||
func _physics_process(delta):
|
||||
# Simple movement using vector addition and multiplication.
|
||||
var direction = Vector2(1, 0) # or Vector2.RIGHT
|
||||
var speed = 100.0
|
||||

# self refers to current class instance
|

|

# When overriding you can call parent's function using the dot operator
|
||||
# like here:
|
||||
func get_children():

# Do some additional things here.

var r = .get_children() # call parent's implementation

extends Object

||||
func use_inner_class():

||||
var ic = InnerClass.new()
|
||||
ic.hello()
|
||||
ic.free() # use free for memory cleanup
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Accessing other nodes in the scene tree
|
||||
|
||||
```nim
|
||||
extends Node2D
|
||||
|
||||
var sprite # This variable will hold the reference.
|
||||
|
||||
# You can get references to other nodes in _ready.
|
||||
func _ready() -> void:
|
||||
# NodePath is useful for accessing nodes.
|
||||
# Create NodePath by passing String to its constructor:
|
||||
var path1 = NodePath("path/to/something")
|
||||
# Or by using NodePath literal:
|
||||
var path2 = @"path/to/something"
|
||||
# NodePath examples:
|
||||
var path3 = @"Sprite" # relative path, immediate child of the current node
|
||||
var path4 = @"Timers/Firerate" # relative path, child of the child
|
||||
var path5 = @".." # current node's parent
|
||||
var path6 = @"../Enemy" # current node's sibling
|
||||
var path7 = @"/root" # absolute path, equivalent to get_tree().get_root()
|
||||
var path8 = @"/root/Main/Player/Sprite" # absolute path to Player's Sprite
|
||||
var path9 = @"Timers/Firerate:wait_time" # accessing properties
|
||||
var path10 = @"Player:position:x" # accessing subproperties
|
||||
|
||||
# Finally, to get a reference use one of these:
|
||||
sprite = get_node(@"Sprite") as Sprite # always cast to the type you expect
|
||||
sprite = get_node("Sprite") as Sprite # here String gets
|
||||
# implicitly casted to NodePath
|
||||
sprite = get_node(path3) as Sprite
|
||||
sprite = get_node_or_null("Sprite") as Sprite
|
||||
sprite = $Sprite as Sprite
|
||||
|
||||
func _process(delta):
|
||||
# Now we can reuse the reference in other places.
|
||||
prints("Sprite has global_position of", sprite.global_position)
|
||||
|
||||
# Use onready keyword to assign a value to
|
||||
# a variable just before _ready executes.
|
||||
# This is a commonly used syntax sugar.
|
||||
onready var tween = $Tween as Tween
|
||||
|
||||
# You can export NodePath, so you can assign it within the inspector.
|
||||
export var nodepath = @""
|
||||
onready var reference = get_node(nodepath) as Node
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Signals
|
||||
|
||||
Signal system is Godot's implementation of the observer programming
|
||||
pattern. Here's an example:
|
||||
|
||||
```nim
|
||||
class_name Player extends Node2D
|
||||
|
||||
var hp = 10
|
||||
|
||||
signal died() # define signal
|
||||
signal hurt(hp_old, hp_new) # signals can take arguments
|
||||
|
||||
func apply_damage(dmg):
|
||||
var hp_old = hp
|
||||
hp -= dmg
|
||||
emit_signal("hurt", hp_old, hp) # emit signal and pass arguments
|
||||
if hp <= 0:
|
||||
emit_signal("died")
|
||||
|
||||
func _ready():
|
||||
# connect signal "died" to function "_on_death" defined in self
|
||||
self.connect("died", self, "_on_death")
|
||||
|
||||
func _on_death():
|
||||
self.queue_free() # destroy Player on death
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Type hints
|
||||
|
||||
GDScript can optionally use static typing.
|
||||
```nim
|
||||
extends Node
|
||||
|
||||
var x: int # define typed variable
|
||||
var y: float = 4.2
|
||||
var z := 1.0 # infer type based on default value using := operator
|
||||
|
||||
onready var node_ref_typed := $Child as Node
|
||||
|
||||
export var speed := 50.0
|
||||
|
||||
const CONSTANT := "Typed constant."
|
||||
|
||||
func _ready() -> void:
|
||||
# function returns nothing
|
||||
x = "string" # ERROR! Type can't be changed!
|
||||
return
|
||||
|
||||
func join(arg1: String, arg2: String) -> String:
|
||||
# function takes two Strings and returns a String
|
||||
return arg1 + arg2
|
||||
|
||||
func get_child_at(index: int) -> Node:
|
||||
# function takes an int and returns a Node
|
||||
return get_children()[index]
|
||||
|
||||
signal example(arg: int) # ERROR! Signals can't take typed arguments!
|
||||
```

||||
