Note: Yarn Spinner for Godot is a work-in-progress project. We don't currently offer any official support for it. We encourage you to file issues if you have them, and to join the official Yarn Spinner Discord to discuss the project!
Yarn Spinner for Godot is a beta port of YarnSpinner-Unity integration to the Godot Engine v4 (requires C# support).
Here is a video of the various samples available as of version 0.2.0:
yarnspinner0.2.0_samples_720p.mp4
To try these samples yourself, open this repository as a Godot project. Feel free to use the code in the samples as the basis for your own game features based on YarnSpinner-Godot.
There is a guide here on the basic installation and usage of the plugin.
Full documentation is available on the same site in this section
- Create a
.yarnprojectwith the Project > Tools > YarnSpinner > Create Yarn Project menu item. - Manage your Yarn Project with a custom inspector which provides buttons similar to the YarnSpinner-Unity inspector
- Yarn scripts will re-import on change, triggering a compilation of all yarn scripts in the associated project
- Storing a compiled yarn program, a list of errors, line metadata, and string tables.
- Dialogue runners, commands, and functions
- Example line view and option view scripts provided.
- Generate CSV files for localizing your dialogue. The CSV files are not in the Godot format, but they have more context fields than Godot CSVs, and YarnSpinner handles parsing and generating the CSVs, and converting them into Godot
.translationfiles. - MarkupPalette custom resources which allow you to simply color parts of your dialogue
