Bro you're a legend, my jump code was all over the place, and I love maths so this was perfect for me thank you so much !

4:35 That indentation is CRIMINAL 💀

I like the word play with "Game Changer"

This is such a great tutorial. The clear and concise information, along with good looking pixel illustrations to demonstrate each concept, just makes it so easy to digest. Please do more tutorials 🙏

this video was one of the best ive seen for godot yet, I really wish you had some more in depth stuff, even a paid course lol! but I also see you've stopped posting :( hope ur doing well!

I NEEEEED Jimmy Blitz 2. Brilliant game.

Should I, as a beginner, start with custom resources or with default resources?

How to add variable jump height?

amzing!

For those using this tutorial with later versions of Godot4... OpenSimplexNoise is outdated, you can use FastNoiseLite instead, which has simplex and simplex smooth as options.

Quick note: In games like 2D marios (at least the older one) the way they handle jumping is much more straightforward than you'd think. The jump speed is a constant and the only thing that changes is gravity. In SMB1: the jump speed is 4 (or 5 if you're sprinting), and gravity just changes depending on whether you're holding A or if you've already started falling

Love the video, gonna rewatch it again.

too fast and too hard to understand :( Is there a way to select a resource to use in script instead of in the inspector? I have like 200 enemy stats resources but I will only be fighting 1 enemy at a time, so I think it would make more sense to access 1 resource in the script at a time rather than dumping 200 into an array.... does that make sense? I just want to access 1 resource at a time in script, how would I do that?

Thank you so much, this was so useful for my recent project! <3

amazing thank you

I tried to use this for my game. The problem I ran into was that when a jump is intiated and the player collides with a wall before jump_height is reached, the player slides up the wall, till the jump_height, before sliding back down. Is there a way to stop the slide upward, when colliding with the wall. Im new to godot and this is my first game I am developing

Anyone know why time to peak somehow changes the jumpheight? is this supposed to happen??? I just want the jump height parameter to be the single thing determining the height, and jump time to peak only changing the time and not actual jump height

I wish I knew about those sooner, I've spent hours slamming my head against the wall because godot moves around files in the PCK on export. With resources this is a non issue...

I typed in ResourceSaver.save("user.//savefile/save_file.tres") It gave me an error: Invalid argument for "save()" function: argument 1 should be "Resource" but is "String".

1:14 TIP: If you want to create a unique resource variable (you can do it in the new godot version) use "duplicate" when load/preload.

I forked your gist for 4, thanks for the tutorial!

You mention resources are "easy to load". Can you explain how? As far as I know there is no function to LoadAllResourcesOfType() at runtime f.e. which was one of the main reasons I stopped trying to learn Godot a while back.

Finally, a game developer who doesn't yell.

I watched it 3 times. I still don’t understand why resources are needed

I just used this create a resource with a user defined Enum that is usable across all nodes. You are a saint my friend, keep up the great work!

Thank you so much!

Will the setup be different if it was adapted in Godot 4?

OMG this video is just so great! I really loved the crazy pixel art and music hahaha

Small tip : in the timed explosive resource, you manually preload a scene for the explosion. Instead you can also make this an export variable of PackedScene. This has 2 benefits, moving scene file doesn't break the loading and you can now have different explosions!

This video's style is funky as hell, dude, that makes it an IMMEDIATE go-to for me to watch!

such a nice video :) ♡♡♡

this is good

Thank you for the video! Two ideas to improve the code: 1) Make your jump_height value negative (e.g. -100) and remove the -1 multiplications from your calculations. 2) Rename jump_time_to_peak to jump_seconds_to_peak and jump_time_to_descent to jump_seconds_to_descent. Why? 1) Don't add the circumstance that in Godot Y -1 is UP to your calculations if you do not need to. Someone who edits the jump_height is most likely aware that -1 points up. No need to hide that fact. 2) It is nice to know the unit of the time by looking at the variable name. Someone who edits the variable does not have to guess.

I think this is the best video for getting the jump right, with it allowing you to control both the height and the time to reach the height. I think using the default gravity often slows down the jump too much as you reach the peak. One thing this doesn't do is allow you to "short" the jump by just tapping and letting go, or do the jump to full height by holding the button. I got this added in 3D using the following line under _physics_process(delta), and I think it would work in 2D if you reverse the signs: if Input.is_action_pressed ("jump") == false && velocity.y > 0: velocity.y -= 1 You can replace the velocity.y -=1 with whatever deceleration formula you want. You can also add a terminal velocity for your character by adding the following under your _physics process: velocity.y = clamp(velocity.y, -100, 100) replacing the 100s with whatever variables you want to use as the min and max velocity. This makes it so your character's fall speed will not increase indefinitely and eventually become constant. Otherwise you may find your character falling way too fast from big heights.

I know this is an older video so i probably wont get a reply, but if i move the menu anywhere other than the starting position, the cursor becomes wildly out of sync with the position of the menu. Leading it to "dissapear" but still being functional. Any help?

Spent an hour trying to figure out how to set up Raycasting, only to find this channel and have every question answered concisely and simply. Thank youuuuuuuuu and also I love your animations they're adorableeeeeeeeee

So, how do I make the jump forced into a single direction?

OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH THE RESOURCESAVER IS SO UNINTUITIVE

Yin yin???????????

wonderfully creative video, and straight to the point. RUclips needs more guys like you bro

For those doing this in 3D and your jump height is inconsistent: Make sure this line: [return jump_gravity if velocity.y < 0 else fall_gravity] Is now: [return jump_gravity if velocity.y > 0 else fall_gravity] Also just generally make sure you are applying negative values to velocity.y for gravity...not positive. One wrong sign will mess up the whole thing.

How could you get this ui to loop back to the top or right to left so you could cycle through menu lists easier?

Would you be down to make a turn based combat tutorial similar to Final Fantasy on the NES

yeah... this doesn't work. Jump height is always off by a few pixels

Good evening @Pefeper ! First of all, I wanted to thank for the tutorial, it really helped me out on creating the Pause Menu and part of the Settings Menu for the game im currently trying to make, and I wouldnt be able to have a stylish pointer if it wasnt for the help and knowledge that one could have through this video (my many thanks). However, it seems like, after I press the button assign for confirmation on the Resume Button, I bring up the Pause Window again without having to get the Menu back up again with the Start button, which means that while I hide the menu along the pointer/cursor, the cursor/pointer can still access to the menu and bring it back up again. I tried using the paused() function on the Pointer/cursor in an attempt to not only hide the Pause Menu and the Pointer/cursor, but to make the Pointer/cursor unable to be used unless the Pause Menu gets backed up to the screen by pressing Start/Escape, but that didn't worked. Any advice or tip to solve this(Make the Pointer/Cursor not able to Select a Label/deactivate it and activate it again) if I may ask? PD: I hope the week and overall, 2024, is going well for everyone.

How can i get a collision on the exit of a collider? Im trying to make accurate bullet penetration but i need to know when does the raycast leaves the collider that it first hit. So i thought relaunching a raycast at the collision point of the collider, just a bit inside it, in the same direction, but i cant make it detect when it leaves the collider? It seems it only detect entering a collider. How can i make it consider exiting a collider as a collision?

Besides saving and loading, can’t I do the rest with custom Nodes? What makes resources special?

I'm back again to talk about refactoring this to work specifically with Godot's inbuilt focus for control nodes. I noticed every control node can specify it's neighbours, so if you're making a bunch of controls and you don't want to keep track of numbers, but update using the Focus tab, you can grab the nodepath as a text string using focus_neighbour_DIRECTION. makes for some short code too, as below; extends Control @export var menu_parent:Node @export var current_lbl:Label @export var cursor_offset: Vector2 @onready var path_pre:String = menu_parent.get_path() @onready var new_focus:String func _ready(): set_cursor_from_focus(current_lbl) func _process(_delta): var new_focus_node: Node if Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_up"): new_focus = path_pre + str(current_lbl.focus_neighbor_top).trim_prefix("..") elif Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_right"): new_focus = path_pre + str(current_lbl.focus_neighbor_right).trim_prefix("..") elif Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_down"): new_focus = path_pre + str(current_lbl.focus_neighbor_bottom).trim_prefix("..") elif Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_left"): new_focus = path_pre + str(current_lbl.focus_neighbor_left).trim_prefix("..") else: return new_focus_node = get_node(new_focus) #print(new_focus_node.name) if current_lbl != new_focus_node: set_cursor_from_focus(new_focus_node) current_lbl = new_focus_node #prints("changed node: ", current_lbl) func set_cursor_from_focus(focus:Node): global_position = Vector2( focus.global_position.x, focus.global_position.y + (size.y / 2) ) - size/2 - cursor_offset

Great work, this helps so much!

just figured this out recently but in case anyone has this issue where the character teleports to the jump height rather than jumping normally, you just change: velocity.y = get_gravity() * delta to velocity.y += get_gravity() * delta this worked for me in a 3D game, idk if it does the same on 2D (itll maybe turn the jump into a really high jump so you might need to tweak the numbers a bit-) great video btw it helped me a lot!
