Godot Roguelike Tutorial

The initial step is simply creating the project, recomendation for a VS Code extension and that's about it

Now we're gonna do some project customization within Godot. Starting with a custom folder step and moving initial resources to the respective folder. Let's create the MainScene, And set project's settings, including things I don't need, like Low Processor Mode Icon was added as a sprite, which wasn't mentioned in the tutorial. Add export settings, installing some extra features, now we can create a 26mg exe file that does nothing!

First add font and tilemap. Then create the proper node for it. Here we did everything before 'change PC's color and save it as a packed scene.' Note https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/step_by_step/instancing.html as a reference to saving scenes

It was impossible boring to make the sprites since it was necessary to create each Sprite node from SCRATCH. If you try to duplicate a note, they are instances of the same thing, meaning, if you change one tile position from one sprite, and you'll change for the other. This is the exact type of experience I DO NOT WANT to have while making games. How am I supposed to make a deep copy of an instance so I can change it without changing the others?!

Still on the third part, subtitle 'Create Sprites From Scripts', writter recomends reading on Godot static typing and style guide https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/scripting/gdscript/static_typing.html https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/scripting/gdscript/gdscript_styleguide.html

Then there are mentions about groups in Godot: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/step_by_step/scripting_continued.html#groups

The author then leaves to the reador to implement _create_sprite(), which I thought it was kinda nice! Fun challenge. Before finishing this up, we need a mock up GUI. Just gonna add FireCod to a Control Node's Label? Maybe it will make sense later

Next type involves input map edits on the project But it's really weird. The tutorial will guide you to making something that won't work properly, and I managed to get it working by passing the create sprite player into the process function of init world, but when I try to move the character around, he snaps back to the initial place? How odd. These steps felt weird as a whole, but something was working in the end. Godot seems to frown when referencing siblings directly, and according to docs:

If a scene must interact with an external context, experienced developers recommend the use of Dependency Injection. While I dislike dependency injection, let's pretend it's not there for now
