BRO HOW DO YOU KEEP MAKING EXACTLY WHAT I NEED IN THE PERFECT TIME! seriously i wanted to start working at the gui for my game and found this video, thx!

[@dev-worm]

Haha, I'm glad to hear it! I hope it was able to help you out a bit!!

[@Apollo_MC11]

@@dev-worm Yes you really do that thank you!!!

[@CodeAikawa]

I actually need this 🙏 thanks DevWorm. My main goal for this year-end break is to create templates for platformer, RPG, and top-down games. This way, I’ll be prepared with ready-made templates for our game development course next semester (I’m a third-year Computer Science student) in case the instructor announces a theme for a game project.

[@a.b.s-studios]

Godspeed bro.... I pray that you will be successful in your current endeavor~

Recently ive been trying to learn more about game development stuff and your content has been extremely helpful and cohesive , Cant wait to see what other tutorials you make in the future.

I am so so glad to hear that!! If you ever have any request or recommendations please let me know.

Thanks for releasing some of these a bit longer videos. I'll save it for when i pick the hobby up in a while again

[@dev-worm]

of course! I hope it will be able to help you when you get back into the hobby! and also goodluck with game dev when you get the chance to get back into it.

[@DKingsofall]

You are truly awesome. Thank you, bro! Love all your videos and tutorials. Can't wait to keep learning from a pro.

[@dev-worm]

That's so awesome to hear, I really appreciate it! If you ever need anything feel free to let me know at anytime!! I am so glad to help!

Just want to say thanks for all the help with godot i have created a working game that i am proud off you :D

[@owenlloyd2528]

This is great and needs to become an 'official' tutorial, linked to by Godot. I would hazard a guess that the biggest reason people quit trying to use Godot is because they get so frustrated trying to understand this aspect of the engine. Point newcomers at this to get them into the zone! It is really good, really well done.

[@Agentt271]

one of the best godot UI tutorials so far

[@dev-worm]

so happy to hear that!! glad it has proven helpful!

[@jorge43786]

@@dev-worm I do have a question. I see there is a matter of hierarchy between the control nodes when acting inside an area. So I have this margin control node expanded in a full screen witch contains two others marginnodes one to control the center of my screen with some maps and images by touch, and the other have UI buttons on the botton side of my screen. I want them both to work at the same time, but only the one in top hierarchy works. I manage to get around it by creating an autoload scene containing these UI buttons in HBoxContainer without a control node expanded full screen, so these buttons are kind of "loose".

[@fy8798]

Really cool video. Oddly time appropriate too - just made a set of menus in Godot. Except the only sensible thing I used was the NineRect, everything else was code. No auto placement, even centering/panning/zooming an automap was in code. The method with controls seems way better once you get your mind wrapped around it.

thanks a lot of devworm ♥️ to make separate and easily understanding tutorials for godot topics can u also make a tutorial for making pixel art sprite animations

thank you so much! I am going to be 100% honest with you im nowhere near a great artist!! But I am working to improve at pixel art as we speak!! so maybe in the near future I'll be able too!

I don't know if you'll ever see this, I'm a beginner who started game dev, recently I'm trying to make my first own game, a plane game of sorts, where the player can only be controlled along the y-axis, and the enemy can only follow along the y-axis as well (while bullets are fired from the enemy along the x ofc), but the enemy can only do so in certain intervals, • the enemy moves for 3 seconds, during which he attacks •after which he stays idle for 3 seconds So to implement these I used a simple state machine With IDLE and FOLLOW (defined them using an enum) Attached a timer to the enemy My code looks like this: Extends Charbody Enum State {IDLE, FOLLOW} Var state = State.IDLE @export var speed : ... @onready var player = reference to player @onready var state timer = reference to timer node Func _ready: state = State.IDLE state timer. Start(3) Func _process(delta): if State == state.FOLLOW: var direction = sign (player.global_position.y - global_position.y) Velocity += direction * speed * Delta Func _on state timer timed out (): If State == state.IDLE: State = state. FOLLOW state timer.Start(3) elif state == state.IDLE: State = state. IDLE State timer. Start(3) And the enemy doesn't move at ALL, when I attached a print to all the methods individually, they seem to be working as intended Another thing is the reference to my player scene looks funny something like: $".../Planey" "Planey" is my player scene Please note I'm a complete beginner to programming as a whole, So I know for a fact there's a problem from my code, chat gpt seems to make it worse

[@dev-worm]

hmm so from what I can see it looks like you are missing a "move_and_slide()" in the _process function. Which will also explain why everything is printed as intended with no errors but the enemy just won't move on screen. So basically just add move_and_slide() at then end of the _process function: like this: Func _process(delta): if State == state.FOLLOW: var direction = sign (player.global_position.y - global_position.y) Velocity += direction * speed * Delta move_and_slide()

Great tutorial, it was nice learning about the NinePatchRect node. Question, in the text tutorial part 50:24 wouldn't be easier to have: Vbox: - Hbox: textDisplay, TextureRectangle - textDisplay1 ? Tough, I guess it would not prevent the need to cut text.

Hi! I need to register a scene as a custom node using the Godot plugin system, but I don't know how to do it. Could you please create a video tutorial explaining the process? Thanks!

[@dev-worm]

I will see what I can do. But what exactly are you having trouble with? Is it the overall process of it? or are there specific spots where you are just really feeling stuck? I hope I'll be able to help

[@QuantumForgeStudios.Official]

@@dev-worm Thank you for your help! I was able to create the scene that I wanted to use as a custom node, and the functionality of the scene is defined in a GDScript. However, I’m struggling with the registration part. Specifically, I’m not sure how to register the scene as a custom node within the Godot editor. Could you guide me through that process?

[@Astral100]

This looks overly complicated to me. I am new to Godot, so perhaps I am missing something, but I don't see why the same couldn't be done with mostly anchors on a single Panel, which would reduce the extra containers to just a couple and tremendously simplify the whole thing.

[@fy8798]

You absolutely can do it with anchors on a single panel, I have. It gets a lot messier though, and likely is worse when players change the resolution/viewport size

[@Astral100]

@@fy8798 If the anchors are set correctly I don't see how changing screen size would mess things up? Perhaps some centering may be affected, but centering is not required often

Good video, but timelapses are pretty pointless in these types of videos (as in add no value) as YTs playback controls are terrible and even if played back at 0.25 speed the music sounds horrendous and there are long periods of nothing followed by bursts of activity 👍

[@dev-worm]

Hey thanks for letting me know. I just thought maybe watching the screen throughout the entire process could be useful as there wouldnt be any major cuts. Because I know some tutorials out there cut chucks out and it feels like there is something missing within the tutorial. So I just aim to not have the tutorial come off that way. But thank you for letting me know and I will try to keep that in mind going into the future.
