All About CURSORS in Godot 4.3

[@hi-ef8eh]

I recently made a virtual PC for my game and had to work with cursor icons. Thanks to this tutorial I know I can make the I-beam icon better using the offsets

I'd love to see that game out one day! Thanks for the support 🥜

Another solution for the mouse over passive elements is to add a flat button(it does not render), but that seems to block the tooltips and other properties that require focus underneath.

Hey, that's really smart! Thanks for the cool tip! 🥜

Awesome tutorial 🙏🏼

[@kevinmakesgames]

Great tutorial! I haven't needed to customize cursors yet but this was very well explained. Definitely a video I'll return to when I need it.

[@cashewolddew]

I'm so happy to hear that! I'd be glad to know it helped you 🥜

[@TheWootfish]

This is really good stuff, and not only for working with cursors - eg the idea you use in implementing apply_cursor_to_node_type seems very broadly useful

[@cashewolddew]

Thank you! It would be fun to see what solutions others come up with in regards to changing the cursor for complex UI components. 🥜

hi! just discovered your channel, great video it isn't related to this this video theme at all, but at 8:16 it got me thinking: in other languages i was advised to avoid things like this loop which calls the get_children() function/method every single time, as function calls are expansive and in this case unessessary. so instead i was taught to declare a variable that calls this function only once, and loop through this variable. i know that some languages optimize this automatically, but i'm new to godot, so does godot script also have optimizations like this?

[@cashewolddew]

That is a nice idea! I think it depends on which resources you want to use. If you want to use more CPU power, you can do it like in the video. If you want to use more memory, you store things in variables. However, in this case, optimization isn't that necessary, as the function is called only once, and it loops over around 100 elements, which is done almost instantly. 🥜 Thanks a lot for subscribing! 🥜
