Nice! I will learn with you.

This looks like a very organized way to do it. I just throw all of the states in a switch function in my player’s script, and each state gets its own function, and then each state’s function has logic for the other states it can switch to… I like this idea though!

I cannot change the focus time, even if is 20 minutes in the "configurations", the timer itself is for 30 minutes

so i am using godot 4.2 can it work platformer

which code is connected to which?

wow, for such a small app i think you really nailed the UX and SFX. the SFX mainly was good for people with ADHD to pay attention on it

Looks like a good exercise for godot UI

It would be cooler if you improved the ui

Not what you would normally expect for someone to make with the Godot engine. But it works just fine. Thanks for sharing!

You should write something like that in zig/c/c++ with raylib. They binary will be a lot smaller.

That realy cool I gonna download

nice il try and use this as a starting point trying to get back into game dev. Mutch respect

:( State_Machine.gd:16 - Parse Error: Cannot call non-static function "Enter()" on the class "State" directly. Make an instance instead.

This was really useful, thanks! I just have one question... Where do you use the Exit function? I was looking for an example of it in your GitHub and didn't find.

Good code, but bad video. I managed to understand the algorithm only after opening the source. If only the video has shown more than two lines at a single time, so that I could get the bigger picture.

Very high quality video ! Awesome ! I was wondering how to do a localized "time bubble" where time would slow down for every object that enters. Maybe you would have some ideas?

it keeps saying could not find type state in the current scope!

One of those tutorials where the maker is trying to look cool instead of making a tutorial. Don't Bother

goood, what i needed

Any tips on how to combine this with composition (stuff like making components and composing entities from them, like VelocityComponent, HealthComponent, WanderAroundComponent, etc)

Is this the same as Finite State Automata? Where you have a Deterministic Finite Automaton, DFA, a Non Deterministic one, NFA, an Epsion Non Deterministic one, e-NFA, and you work on reducing whatever automata you have into a minimal deterministic one? I took this as part of an introductory course to compilers and it seems awfully similar

That punch animation was personal

It is the worst and most complicated tutorial on earth!!!!!

what if it is a package file like ultimate 2d controller

Interesting, thanks 🙂

This video is structured as something in-between a step-by-step, follow along tutorial and a devlog. I apologize for the confusion, i recomend anyone interested in the project to get it straight from the source rather than following along the video, download here: github.com/ForlornU/Fishy-example-game

I'm sry I understand how a statemachine works in theory, but I can not make sense of this line: child.state_transition.connect(change_state)

amazing video, but i feel it's definitely important to show and explain how to use state_transition and explain what it does, and how it connects the scripts. great otherwise though, i needed someone to explain FSM to me like i'm 5 lmao

How would you get AI and objects to be attracted toward the center of the planet rather than just a character controller? Like imagine, pushing a box around the planet and the box doesn't fly off into space or fall off

Hello, how would you be able to add a height variable like the one in your archer video to the prediction curve in this exact setup?

I'm only 12 minutes into this video and I find the tutorial extremely frustrating to follow. There's a lot of jumping around and often changes are made to the script, nodes, or options without being said in the narration and if you're not focused like a hawk you might miss it. Feels almost like a devlog instead of a tutorial. This is my 3rd or 4th Godot tutorial, and I don't think I'm going to finish this one, which is unfortunate.

7:02 I get an error "Invalid set index 'velocity' (on base: 'Nil') with value of type 'Vector2'." Anyone else?

Unironically i have a personal project like feeding frenzy I’ll be working on(already started and have a fsm for moving animation kinda) after the game jam im in.

Great to see your back with more content! Keep up the great work!

Gosh this was a real lesson for me! The lesson was mostly good but there were some parts that were *so* hard to follow, you tend to click around the screen so quickly it I guess it implies that I'm meant to know where those things are... the screen settings at 21:36 or when you changed the gradient I had to actually slow down the speed of the video to see what you were doing (and you started doing it before you started talking about it) so that was really hard to follow, I haven't been able to finish the whole thing and I think I'm going to have to finish this just by myself and using chat gpt because there are too many things that when I copied your code exactly they just do not work in the same way, I think there are a few instances where things were changed/ renamed outside of the tutorial, overall it is good and when you explain things they are clear, the whole segment with the spawner was great, but I wasn't able to follow beginning to end unfortunately and I tried really hard!! I'm very new to godot this is my second video that I'm following.

nice video, very well teaching. can i request more beginner project

Wonderful job with the video. Love your coding style and appreciate you going into the code and explaining why you chose to do what you did. You also go into topics your typical engineer would immediately think of such as not hardcoding everything. Very nice! I wouldn't know for sure but I think the way you explain it may even help those who don't code for a living understand.

Seems helpful!

Feeding frenzy?

Just found your channel and I fell in love with it

thank you dude. I was wondering, what the difference between having an interface like IMakeSound MakeSound() and a TypeOfSound abstract class with an abstract Method MakeASound() that have multiple override MakeASound Child like CatSound : TypeOfSound, GongSound : TypeOfSound that would be referenced in the calss like : public Class Cat : { public TypeOfSound mySound initialization{ mySound = getComponent<CatSound>() }

Hey, I've been messing with the project for a few hours now and I've hit a bug that I have no idea how to fix correctly. At the start of the game or scene change, when I walk into an enemy I get an error because currently attack is null. So I just make a ready function and set current to 0 or 1, works fine except now I deal damage to enemies just by walking into them. So I try and set it to a "new" attack that dose 0 and here is the bigger issue I'm having. The array size is 2 just the 2 normal attacks. Adding another node doesn't change this and when in the debug menu it shows a grayed out option to add a new member, when back tracking that it leads you to a root node with no mention of members. I can't seem to find anything through Google related to this so I was really hoping you'd be able to help. That you

Good videos!

Useless, you left out the most important part about how to actually trigger a state transition from the idle state class

states[child.name.to_lower] = child I understand the logic written inside, but I've never seen code written in square brackets before, what is the purpose/function of that?

not helping

Lovely intro on how FSM work, as well as separating them all out to a manager function. I believe this is how Godot is meant to be programmed.

Thanks for this very comprehensive tutorial about FSM. 🤗

I've been watching through a couple of different videos after finishing my player movement system in my first game and decided to switch it over to a state machine, since I plan on adding even more movement mechanics later on and I want to make it easier on myself. This is the first video I've found that explains things in such detail, so thank you! However, in every video I've watched and tried to follow along, I keep getting stuck on specific tidbits that I can't seem to find an answer to either in the video, or on specific searches on Reddit/Google/Etc. Where would be the best resource for figuring out solutions to problems like "In my Finite State Machine script, there are 'Could not parse global class "State" from "res"//Scripts/PlayerState.gd" over every mention of the variable 'initial_state'. How do I fix this?". I want to find a community or resource where I can easily look up these errors and find out why its not working. And if the reason I can't figure this out is due to a lack of very basic knowledge of GDScript, where should I start learning that basic knowledge?
