A simple developer's journey

If you like me, are coding generally in C# or other Camel case based programming language and start to  code in Flutter / Dart, you will always see a warning like this:   The variable name 'xxxx' isn't a lowerCamelCase identifier. Try changing the name to follow the lowerCamelCase style. To solve that, you can add a specific comment at the begining of each file where you have this issue. But maybe the most interesting thing for you is to do it only once in your whole project. For that, you have to edit the following file: analysis_options.yaml Add the following statements:  non_constant_identifier_names: ignore # This file configures the analyzer, which statically analyzes Dart code to # check for errors, warnings, and lints. include: package:flutter_lints/flutter.yaml linter: rules: # avoid_print: false # Uncomment to disable the `avoid_print` rule # prefer_single_quotes: true # Uncomment to enable the `prefer_single_quotes` rule # Disable the non_const

If you develop a 2D game for mobile, like a RPG game seen from top (Zelda like for instance), and you want to navigate on your map just by dragging the screen, here is the simple way to implement it in GODOT. In your level scene you have to add a "Camera" Node and make it the current one: public override void _Ready() { // Ensure the camera is set as current Current = true; } Then create the associated Camera script (in this example in C#). You have to handle Godot input events to animate the camera. The events to manage are: - InputEventScreenTouch - InputEventScreenDrag The goal is to determinate the delta amount of  horizontal & vertical spaces that have been dragged by the user. You can see an example of handling these events in the following code snippet (camera script):  using Godot; using System; public partial class camera : Camera2D { private Vector2 _touchStartPosition = new Vector2(); private bool _isDragging = false; // Call

While trying to develop my first game, I was wondering how to manage my game's "CONTEXT". Like maybe the current level, the global player's score or any other "GLOBAL" variables. GLOBAL variables (static in C#) can be used from any script. 1- Create a "global" script This is the script containing global variables and methods that will be accessible from every other script. Below here is an example of a global script called "App.cs": ==> you can see a static variable called "MainScene". This is the scene that can be accessible from everywhere (like a MENU scene for instance). 2- Make your script global In your project settings, find the "AutoLoad" tab and ACTIVATE the script "Global variable" parameter. Then you will be abble to access the script from everywhere. 3- Example of accessing the global variables In my mainscene script, I instantiate the app's (app.cs script) global variable by accessing it
