godot-fgd

FGD (Forge Game Data) parser for Godot

Setup

• Make sure tbloader is installed and you have added the tb-gameconfig folder (from the tbloader repo) into the trenchbroom games folder.
• Add the game path to your game root in the Trenchbroom settings.
• Run run.sh to compile the fgd file
• At the bottom of the Trenchbroom right hand panel there is an option to add "External" fgd files. Add the generated one to your map.
• You can now use the entities in your map.

Usage

The script will process all .tscn and .gd files in the entities folder. It will gather the exported variables and generate a fgd file that can be used in Trenchbroom.

Special variables

When exporting these variables, they will be used to configure the entity for use with Trenchbroom.

• fgd_solid - Whether the entity is a SolidClass/Brush or not. i.e true
• fgd_size - The scale factor for the entity in trenchbroom. i.e 4
• fgd_color - The color of the entity in trenchbroom. i.e 0 255 0 (yellow)
• fgd_model - The model settings for the entity in trenchbroom. See an example here.
• fgd_block - An array of variables NOT to export. i.e ["my_var", "bar"]

Variable types

Different variable types will have different controls in Trenchbroom.

• bool - 1 or 0 in an input box
• string - text input
• int - number input
• float - number input
• Color - color picker
• string array - drop down list (choices)
• dictionary - checkboxes (flags)

Troubleshooting

Error: "Could not load model. File not Found"

• Make sure the model actually exists
• Make sure you have set the game path in Trenchbroom settings.

Attempt to call function 'list_dir_begin' in base 'null instance' on a null instance.

• Make sure the entities folder exists and that it is configured correctly in tbloader.
