I had intended this to be a YouTube short, but it ran over a bit. Some might still find it useful. Focused on XR but works just as fine for non-XR use cases.

Tool scripts: Add a paragraph on how Inputs are handled in a tool script and how to get node references · Issue #5262 · godotengine/godot-docs Your Godot version: Godot 3.3.3 stable Issue description: Over the past three years I have wasted literally weeks on trying to figure out how to get my tool scripts to respond to Input. Eventually ...

An old Godot docs ticket was revived with a comment, and that sent me spelunking.

Do you know exactly why your edited scenes do not receive input events in the editor, even under `tool`? Well, there are 4 separate reasons:

One year ago, I used #Godot for the first time!!

Since
- I made 6+ tiny games
- I became ambassador of Godot Quebec
- I went part time to make Godot guides
- I started making a real video game

Godot and it's community allowed me to grow in ways I never thought I could 🥺

Thank you so much 🩵🩵

Release candidate: Godot 4.6.2 RC 2 – Godot Engine Once more for good measure!

Maintenance release: Godot 4.5.2 – Godot Engine A significant update for 4.5 users with important rendering bug fixes, especially for mobile and D3D12.

Have you ever thought something was lost in the mail, only to later realize that you simply never sent the item to begin with?

…No?

…On a completely unrelated note, #GodotEngine 4.5.2 releases today! Check out the full list of crucial fixes here:

Oh, yeah. I've not implemented it yet but my idea is that the events that started but did not end after the animation stops will emit the ended signal.

The animation maintainer blocked the event tracks feature though so it won't be available unless they change their opinion.

Yeah... Same. I made it out of frustration. I tried to convey it with them but they won't change their position... 🤷

Yes, here's the proposal github.com/godotengine/...

I've not opened a PR yet but here's the current implementation github.com/mrcdk/godot/...

Welp, the Godot's animation maintainer doesn't think that event tracks are useful or needed 🥲 and they don't think they can be merged.

I tried to explain what advantages they bring against other track types but they say these advantages can be workaround...

I guess UX is not a focus 🤷

joining in on the meme of the day with dicey dungeons enhanced by DLSS5, (thanks to https://bsky.app/profile/terriv.bsky.social for the enhancement!)

is this how graphics work

I'm not sure what you mean by animation cancelling. Could you elaborate?

It's a built-in feature. I'll open a PR once I finish it. Here's the proposal github.com/godotengine/...

Me 4 weeks ago: I should add event tracks to animations. It should be fast and easy!

Me today: Haha, how naïve past me was...

I'm almost done!
