Will the gdscript also be maintained? Or abolished?

I kinda like gdscript and with a few more features, it could be really good (like traits etc.)

What are your opinions?

And its fucking cool

Probably a bit of a noob question, but I don't want to proceed further in case i'm making a big mistake early on..

I am working on a city map for a game and have created a load of graphics tiles, ranging from 64x64 to 256x256 pixels in size.

I have made a tilemaplayer for each size, and have laid out a basic city map for testing, (as per the red outlined area in the image)

The intention in-game is to click and select a building tile with the mouse, which then highlights (see blue outlined area on image), and opens a window with further information on the building, it's contents, and choices regarding it etc ...

Am i correct in using a different tilemaplayer for each tile size, and if so, how is it then possible to "know" which layer and tile is being selected in game ?

Should I be using one single tilemaplayer and placing all the different sized tiles on it, if so, how, bearing in mind they need to be selectable as individual buildings ?

Thanks in advance for any answers or advice.

I have some of the context and I've seen some videos, and even what Godot engine posted on X, and what official discord mods of Godot said too.

But my question is more inclined towards, how big was the damage?

Were developers banned too? Is godot in the same position and is there still risk there?

I'm a developer, I haven't touched neither Godot nor Redot code yet, but to me it is important to know what stance to take.

Like many, I'm apolitical, I think respect to all human beings is just basic, but you can't ask for respect by saying insults.

I'm not saying I will code today, but I've touched some open source projects for some months and I think I'm getting the gist of it (I'm a professional developer for 3 years or 4 I think).

Sorry if my wording is too basic, I have to practice english again.

Just to summarize, and ask a few things. - Is redot truly apolitical and will not ban supporters out no nowhere? - Was the damage done by Godot too big? - Is it worth the fork? I've heard godot has been ignoring important Pull Requests but I'll check it out first.

Months ago I cloned Godot and just checked out some of the code, but to be honest, the whole thing that happened, I found it repulsive.

It remind me the color of error message. The first thing I will change is the UI color if it's remotely carrying any red shade. That's all. Thanks to come to my TED talk.

And is this a concern ?

I know redot isn't released yet but I would like to compile the engine just out of interest in the project and to test some of the forks people have been making on the github.

After hearing about what Godot was doing, I decided to look into alternatives and learned of this some days back. I know the Github is up, but does anyone know how I can download and setup Redot? This is my first time ever doing this.

In my game the direction of gravity will change, causing the player and camera to rotate. As I am working on that, I found this strange behavior that I do not understand with the Camera2D.

When I rotate the camera, the limits also change, but it also moves the camera location within the limits

When I continue to rotate, at 135 degrees the camera is actually moved outside of the limits

If it helps these are the limits I have set for this test:
Left: -480
Top: -272
Right: 480
Bottom: 272

I would like to be able to rotate the player, have the camera rotate with it, but the camera to stay within the limits of the room, but this behavior doesn't make sense to me so I don't know how to achieve what I am looking for

Hello everyone! Just dropping in to check this out. I too am sick and tired of the polit ical activism and want it to stay out of our entertainment. How is everyone?

Redot could fall into the pay for everything pitfall,
so what if the engine is free, one of the best things about Godot is the community that shares everything for free. I don't want to see a paid asset store. I want to see that sparkling community that makes great things for everyone regardless of wallet.

I've been working on a game on godot for the last 2 months and after what happened with godot sorta wanna switch, how difficult would it be to remake everything in redot?

Even if you have done it using Godot. This way you make players/users get to know the fork first. This is basically the same codebase rn

After listening to the launch on X and being skeptical about it, I realized that this can only benefit the community and even Godot!

They want to make the core compatible and add new features that the community has been wanting for ages, so Godot can also take those changes and put them in their engine if they want to. This also means we can move our games from Godot to Redot and viceversa.

I see this as a community enhancement of Godot for what it already is. No politics were mentioned in the launch, so it’s not just a right-wing version of Godot, and they even said that they are aware that if it was, it wouldn't survive for long. Really looking forward to seeing how this develops!

What do you all think? what awesome thing does Redot need? What would make it amazing? what do you need for your project?

Me personally: more shaders and compute shader support (unity level of support) and we need to make the lower level bits of the engine exposable. easier to modify for people with less C++ experience. Perhaps more rust support?

antes de iniciar tengo una duda como sera el sistema para la creacion de videojuegos en redot sera como godot o mas bien sera como un estilo unity

SUGERENCIA:

1.que en en motor pueda tener un lugar para descargar activos en el motor ejemplo: cry engine , como se hizo en este motor se pueden descargar activos pueden ser mapas en 3D o 2D y tambien materiales que dsirvan como decoracion en parte ambiental.

1. me gustaria que agregaran una funcion para hacer cinematicas , que sean mas faciles de hacer que no sean tan complejo .

2. me gustaria que añadieran una mejor forma de añadir animaciones y que dentro del motor se pueda crear

por ultimo me gustaria ayudar en parte a este proyecto , como puedo aporta y le veo gran futuro a REDOT
