Godot

• one thing to look especially into is the proprietary support like meta tools

• When interacting with tracked controllers or tracked hands, you can toggle on the interface/touchscreen/enable_long_press_as_right_click editor setting to enable right-click by long press.

• When interacting with tracked controllers or tracked hands, you can increase the size of the scrollbar using the interface/touchscreen/increase_scrollbar_touch_area editor setting.

First Tutorial

lua extension
why lua?

• I like it and have always wanted to use it that's why

• keyboard projector
  • it could be in xr too
  • is there an open source zmk keyboard interpreter?
• pong
• docs tutorial
• 20:20:20

should compile a list of references I keep saving

• tutorial from the godot docs used for cs50gd

Deterministic IK

In computer science, “deterministic” means that the result is always the same for a given input. In particular, for game applications like Godot, the term means that the result does not depend on the state of the previous frame. Incidentally, since AnimationMixer already has a deterministic option, that immediately made me decide to adopt this term.

You can put all your XR specific nodes in a global group and Desktop specific nodes in another then do a get_tree().call_group("xr_only_nodes", "queue_free") if the XRInterface is_initialized() or isn't. That way you can have both types of nodes placed down in editor your scenes/levels at the same time.

• The last important thing you need to know is that you'll want to turn on Low Processor Mode in the project settings.

Open source games to look at

Adding a floor

This node governs the in game movement of your character and will immediately react to gravity. So to prevent our player from infinitely falling down we'll quickly add a floor to our scene.

We start by adding a StaticBody3D node to our root node and we rename this to Floor. We add a MeshInstance3D node as a child node for our Floor. Then create a new PlaneMesh as its mesh. For now we set the size of the mesh to 100 x 100 meters. Next we add a CollisionShape3D node as a child node for our Floor. Then create a BoxShape as our shape. We set the size of this box shape to 100 x 1 x 100 meters. We also need to move our collision shape down by 0.5 meters so the top of our box is flush with the floor.
