Notes

Frogger

• elements can be dragged and dropped to the 2d canvas from the filesystem folder

  • this will add a 2d node to the sceen (left side)
  • using the inspector on the right side specific properties of the node can be updated

• but instead use scenes on the 2d screen by adding nodes

Scenes & Nodes

Nodes

• basic building blocks
• images, timers, etc

Scenes

• containers for Nodes
• manage whats displaed in the game
• scene can be a whole level

First Example

1. Create Root Node 2d
2. Add ChildNode Sprite2d
3. Add a texture to the Sprite2d node
   • drag and drop the godot icon to the texture in the inspector of the Sprite2d
4. Optionally copy the Sprite2d node to create additional nodes
   • change the visiblity of additional nodes to differentiate

Nodes in a scene are related to each other. Therefore rotating the FirstScene root node (parent node) will also rotate its child nodes.
