Godot Scene Manager

Simple scene manager with simple transition effects using RPG Maker greyscale images. Doesn't do async loading at all, but that's fine for small games that just want a little pizzaz to their visuals. Just drop the file into your project and add it to your Autoloads. Then start doing SceneManager.change_scene('res://myscene.tscn') instead of get_tree().change_scene('res://myscene.tscn') and you'll be good to go.

I bundled these up into groups and wrote some thoughts about why I ask them!

If these helped you, I'd love to hear about it!! I'm on twitter @vcarl_ or send me an email carl.vitullo@gmail.com

iOS, The Future Of macOS, Freedom, Security And Privacy In An Increasingly Hostile Global Environment

TL;DR

	# Loads a scene in the background using a seperate thread and a queue.
	# Foreach new scene there will be an instance of ResourceInteractiveLoader
	# that will raise an on_scene_loaded event once the scene has been loaded.
	# Hooking the on_progress event will give you the current progress of any
	# scene that is being processed in realtime. The loader also uses caching
	# to avoid duplicate loading of scenes and it will prevent loading the
	# same scene multiple times concurrently.
	#
	# Sample usage:
	#

	extends Node

	onready var anim = $Fader/AnimationPlayer

	func change_scene(next_scene, params=[]):
	"""
	Changes scene with a transition.
	You can hold the fade back in transition if desired until
	the next scene is in a state that is considered ready
	"""

	#!/bin/bash
	### usage ./convert.sh game
	## where game is baseName of the export

	if [ ! "$1" ]; then
	read -p 'Game name: ' game
	else
	game="$1"
