How To Make A Settings Menu in Godot

[@cyzaine]

Beautifully done. I learned alot from this! Thanks.

[@CobainSnake]

I know this is a year old - haven't gotten all the way through it yet, but if you update your Save Settings when you close the Setting Menu, that will reduce the calls you need that you are currently making in your Global Settings script. Hope that idea helps you :) Everything else was great here (and in the live version)

[@F4ngb0n3]

Learned a BUNCH! Thank you so much!!! I do have an issue though; in the _ready() function of the Settings script, Godot is telling me the display_options_btn is a 'null instance'. I have it setup exactly like yours with the onready var but it throws it everytime

[@rayuserp]

were you able to resolve the issue? Do you still need help?

[@F4ngb0n3]

@@rayuserp yes I was able to figure it all out. Can't remember what the exact issue was but found a work around and got it all sorted!

[@yutsuneko]

Very instructive, thanks you!

[@redteller]

so i tried added other indexes but didnt work and now im getting "Invalid get index 'fullscreen_on' (on base: 'Dictionary'). ive checked to make sure everything is spelt and cased right. even went back on the video to make sure i did everything right. any suggestions?

[@EthernalOynuyor]

Good video, one thing tho all of my settings get saved without problems but the sound sliders don't, they just reset after every launch?

[@paulosullivan3472]

Can you make a video on how to make a menu where the key-bindings can be changed by the player?

[@rayuserp]

sorry for the late reply now to answer your question maybe in the future.

okay so i used this video for help a while ago and it's worked great...except for when i tried to re-add mouse sensitivity customisation. while it reads and saves any changes made without issue, even with the connected signals and custom methods on the player controller i can't get any value from the custom sensitivity i set. i've set it up like you have in this video and nothing, without a default variable for the sensitivity godot is saying the value is null. any suggestions?

[@rayuserp]

Do you have the code on GitHub so I can see it? Or is it possible for you to show me the code you are using to try and save the sensitivity

[@wagihhegazy2667]

Here's the code for "save.gd" if anybody is too lazy to write it. extends Node const SAVEFILE = "user://SAVEFILE.save" var game_data = {} func _ready(): load_data() func load_data(): var file = File.new() if not file.file_exists(SAVEFILE): game_data = { "fullscreen_on": false, "vsync_on": false, "display_fps": false, "max_fps": 0, "bloom_on": false, "brighteness": 1, "master_vol": -10, "music_vol": -10, "sfx_vol": -10, "fov": 70, "mouse_sens": .1, } save_data() file.open(SAVEFILE, File.READ) game_data = file.get_var() file.close() func save_data(): var file = File.new() file.open(SAVEFILE, File.WRITE) file.store_var(game_data) file.close()

Awesome tutorial!

[@direnbulut1318]

How is the fullscreen comming faster then in your 2hour tutorial? thats pretty interesting :D

[@TheInfamousLegend27]

cos it's a 33-minute cut of a 2 and 1/2 hour video lmao

[@owenlloyd2528]

Thank you

[@-Siddarth-]

Hey rayuse! Can you make a video on how to make an NPC that just runs around? I have tried a lot of methods but all of them don't seem to work! Thank you!

[@rayuserp]

Hm maybe, that just has to do with pathfinding which I actually have a video on it already you would just have to modify it to work with points instead such as position2ds instead of following the player

[@plutoniumgamestudio]

I cant download the githun projekt, it shows 404 error coulld you help me?

[@rayuserp]

Sorry about that the link was broken for some reason. It should be fixed now

[@plutoniumgamestudio]

did you check that you dictionary key is called master_vol exactly case being important as well

[@LuizAntonio_Gameplay]

Would love to see that github

The project is linked in the longer version but I will include it here thanks for reminding

its now available in the description

[@nectof]

Thx!

[@plutoniumgamestudio]

Hi! all its good, but i cant see you doing the "display fps". Btw amazing tutorial!

[@rayuserp]

There' s a longer version of this on the channel where I live streamed the entire process and show more of the settings

[@plutoniumgamestudio]

@@rayuserp Okay

[@madness2048]

Good, but how to show fps?

[@rayuserp]

i show all that in the longer version of this tutorial were I was actually live video should be on the channel

[@madness2048]

@@rayuserp Thanks.

[@TheInfamousLegend27]

you can achieve it in a single line of code by passing it through a label. the code is: label.text = "FPS: " + str(Performance.get_monitor(Performance.TIME_FPS)) obviously i'm late to commenting but it's easier than watching through a 2hr video to get one tid bit of the settings menu lmao

Bro's not gonna explain anything because of time limitations and ends up making a 33 min video. Irony

[@rayuserp]

30mins is definitely an overview compared to the 2+hr in-depth video.
