⚙ Seeker's Simple Notifications is a modulable, open and robust Notification System for you to use in your Godot 4.6+ projects. Enjoy the peace of mind of a ready to use, fully commented and easily expandable addon !
The code is available on Github and you can try a build online directly on itch.io !
In short, you send notifications objects to an autoload that handles the UI.
Global-level features :
- Receive notifications and display them !
- You can set Project-Wide defaults values for all options, and tune a specific notification to override theses defaults !
- Limit (or don't) the amount of simultaneous notifications on screen at the same time.
- Notifications sent but not displayed are kept in a queue and are displayed once there's enough space !
- Notifications can be dismissed by clicking or by letting them expire after a while. This create space for more !
- Store "named" notifications to invoke and reuse later !
The Humble Notification :
- Customize the Big Three of Achievements : Icon, Title, Description.
- Can play a sound on being displayed ! PYLONS !
- Control how and where (which corner) the notifications are displayed.
- Presets animations for spawn and fade.
- Display their remaining lifetime (can be disabled) thanks to a slick progress bar.
- Can make your actual taskbar icon blink! (but only if you want it too...)
- Super easy styling with Godot's Theming feature.
Additional Stuff :
- Playable demo scene
- Never wonder how to integrate it into your game again. Just look at how I did it !
- Fully commented code for easier onboarding and learning.
- Know what the classes are and do.
- Know what the variables are and what they impact.
- Know what the functions do and how they work.
- Many documentation files ! Check out Included Documentation below.
The current animation is a simple fade in/out. It's really basic but does the job.
Godot 4.7 is coming soon and add a way to make complex UI animations in a super easy way. I will add more animations options to the pack once Godot 4.7 is here ! You can do them for 4.6 and under if you really need them for like tommorow, good luck and tell me how you did it !
4.6 Pack will of course stay available once 4.7 releases and I've made more animations.
