You will need to close and then reopen the node to see the changes and icon must be put before the class declaration

around half the instances I checked were affected, no idea why only them were affected. world is also currently behind in inbound federation due to the pure amount of activities its generating atm (only instance that is atm). We fixed the issues so it shouldnt be happening anymore (and I can see this post on world)

world, lemm.ee dont have them, beehaw does for example

no problem, been using it as an excuse to learn about godot as well

For people on other instances, you might not see posts 29 and 30 due to some issues (e.g. people on .world) but you can see them by going to https://programming.dev/c/godot

 

This shows up when there’s no value and disappears when you start to type

Works for Strings, Arrays of Strings and PackedStringArrays

 

It removes what you set as the prefix from the name for the variable in the inspector

 

You can nest as many subfolders as you want using this

 

@export_group("Text") is used to make a group and you can break out of the group using @export_group("")

 

This pops it out into a new window that you can move around separate from the main window (e.g. onto other monitors)

 

in this case I selected res so its showing everything in res on the right

 

*(unless the subfolder explicitly has another color set)

Useful for finding certain folders quicker

I dont

⠀⠀⠀⠀know what you're

talking

⠀⠀ab out

 

Putting a backslash after a part of the statement basically means ignore any newlines between this and the next characters so you can indent it however you want

 

This lets you type parts that are differentiated from the other variables quicker while still having enough to smart pick it

It definitely has more niche use due to the children interactions. Its pretty much just a shorthand for one specific case of function calls you would do so that you dont have to mess with all of reparenting, position, etc. for that case

Its more useful for engine and tool development (and is used in the engine for the change type button when you right click)

Off the top of my head a use case in a game would if for some reason you have placeholders, replacing the placeholder with the actual node. Another one is if your enemies change based on a specific metric in the game (e.g. once a run hits 1 minute all enemies change to be a harder enemy), you can just replace the old enemy node/script with the new one so that you get the updated script (would have to also manage the sprite in that case though)

 

If you do this remember to free the old one (or have some way of accessing it) since the engine won't do it for you

 

This is useful to see where specific prints are happening

Was an issue with the upgrade script when upgrading to 0.19.5

[–] Ategon 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Caused by the same db issue thats been causing issues

[–] Ategon 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah they appear in the feeds. So people primarily use it through sub and local sorts atm

[–] Ategon 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

old is still supported, what comment section are you trying to look at

[–] Ategon 1 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Newer communities arent affected

[–] Ategon 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

it cant have the same slug, just for the idea of remaking

it doesnt fully break communities, you just cant look at the page for the community and new people cant sub (but they can still be posted and read from). humor has still been active with posts while broken

next downtime hopefully should be soon to do another round of fixes

[–] Ategon 1 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Theoretically remaking the community is the exact same as moving it to another instance since new communities arent affected. Everythings been getting worked on openly in the support channel on discord/matrix so if anyone wants to help can help get things fixed there

[–] Ategon 2 points 1 month ago

Been getting worked on, last downtime fixed some of the issues but script still needs to be adjusted a bit since some communities break again a bit after being fixed
