Player scene and input actions
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
In the next two lessons, we will design the player scene, register custom input
|
|
actions, and code player movement. By the end, you'll have a playable character
|
|
that moves in eight directions.
|
|
|
|
.. TODO: add player animated gif?
|
|
.. player_movement.gif
|
|
|
|
Create a new scene by going to the Scene menu in the top-left and clicking *New
|
|
Scene*.
|
|
|
|
|image0|
|
|
|
|
Create a :ref:`CharacterBody3D <class_CharacterBody3D>` node as the root
|
|
|
|
.. image:: img/02.player_input/add_character_body3D.webp
|
|
|
|
Name the :ref:`CharacterBody3D <class_CharacterBody3D>` to ``Player``.
|
|
Character bodies are complementary to the area and rigid bodies used in the 2D
|
|
game tutorial. Like rigid bodies, they can move and collide with the
|
|
environment, but instead of being controlled by the physics engine, **you** dictate
|
|
their movement. You will see how we use the node's unique features when we code
|
|
the jump and squash mechanics.
|
|
|
|
.. seealso::
|
|
|
|
To learn more about the different physics node types, see the
|
|
:ref:`doc_physics_introduction`.
|
|
|
|
For now, we're going to create a basic rig for our character's 3D model. This
|
|
will allow us to rotate the model later via code while it plays an animation.
|
|
|
|
Add a :ref:`Node3D <class_Node3D>` node as a child of ``Player`` and name it ``Pivot``
|
|
|
|
.. image:: img/02.player_input/adding_node3D.webp
|
|
|
|
Then, in the FileSystem dock, expand the ``art/`` folder
|
|
by double-clicking it and drag and
|
|
drop ``player.glb`` onto ``Pivot``.
|
|
|
|
|image1|
|
|
|
|
This should instantiate the model as a child of ``Pivot``.
|
|
You can rename it to ``Character``.
|
|
|
|
|image2|
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The ``.glb`` files contain 3D scene data based on the open source glTF 2.0
|
|
specification. They're a modern and powerful alternative to a proprietary format
|
|
like FBX, which Godot also supports. To produce these files, we designed the
|
|
model in `Blender 3D <https://www.blender.org/>`__ and exported it to glTF.
|
|
|
|
As with all kinds of physics nodes, we need a collision shape for our character
|
|
to collide with the environment. Select the ``Player`` node again and add a child node
|
|
:ref:`CollisionShape3D <class_CollisionShape3D>`. In the *Inspector*, on the *Shape* property, add a new :ref:`SphereShape3D <class_SphereShape3D>`.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: img/02.player_input/add_capsuleshape3d.webp
|
|
|
|
The sphere's wireframe appears below the character.
|
|
|
|
|image3|
|
|
|
|
It will be the shape the physics engine uses to collide with the environment, so
|
|
we want it to better fit the 3D model. Make it a bit larger by dragging the orange
|
|
dot in the viewport. My sphere has a radius of about ``0.8`` meters.
|
|
|
|
Then, move the collision shape up so its bottom roughly aligns with the grid's plane.
|
|
|
|
|image4|
|
|
|
|
To make moving the shape easier, you can toggle the model's visibility by clicking
|
|
the eye icon next to the ``Character`` or the ``Pivot`` nodes.
|
|
|
|
|image5|
|
|
|
|
Save the scene as ``player.tscn``
|
|
|
|
With the nodes ready, we can almost get coding. But first, we need to define
|
|
some input actions.
|
|
|
|
.. _doc_first_3d_game_input_actions:
|
|
|
|
Creating input actions
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
To move the character, we will listen to the player's input, like pressing the
|
|
arrow keys. In Godot, while we could write all the key bindings in code, there's
|
|
a powerful system that allows you to assign a label to a set of keys and
|
|
buttons. This simplifies our scripts and makes them more readable.
|
|
|
|
This system is the Input Map. To access its editor, head to the *Project* menu
|
|
and select *Project Settings*.
|
|
|
|
|image6|
|
|
|
|
At the top, there are multiple tabs. Click on *Input Map*. This window allows
|
|
you to add new actions at the top; they are your labels. In the bottom part, you
|
|
can bind keys to these actions.
|
|
|
|
|image7|
|
|
|
|
Godot projects come with some predefined actions designed for user interface
|
|
design (see above screenshot). These will become visible if you enable the
|
|
*Show Built-in Actions* toggle. We could use these here, but instead we're
|
|
defining our own to support gamepads. Leave *Show Built-in Actions* disabled.
|
|
|
|
We're going to name our actions ``move_left``, ``move_right``, ``move_forward``,
|
|
``move_back``, and ``jump``.
|
|
|
|
To add an action, write its name in the bar at the top and press Enter.
|
|
|
|
|image8|
|
|
|
|
Create the following five actions:
|
|
|
|
|image9|
|
|
|
|
To bind a key or button to an action, click the "+" button to its right. Do this
|
|
for ``move_left``. Press the left arrow key and click *OK*.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: img/02.player_input/left_inputmap.webp
|
|
|
|
Bind also the :kbd:`A` key, onto the action ``move_left``.
|
|
|
|
|image12|
|
|
|
|
Let's now add support for a gamepad's left joystick. Click the "+" button again
|
|
but this time, select *Manual Selection -> Joypad Axes*.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: img/02.player_input/joystick_axis_input.webp
|
|
|
|
Select the negative X axis of the left joystick.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: img/02.player_input/left_joystick_select.webp
|
|
|
|
Leave the other values as default and press *OK*
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
If you want controllers to have different input actions, you should use the Devices option in Additional Options. Device 0 corresponds to the first plugged gamepad, Device 1 corresponds to the second plugged gamepad, and so on.
|
|
|
|
Do the same for the other input actions. For example, bind the right arrow, D,
|
|
and the left joystick's positive axis to ``move_right``. After binding all keys,
|
|
your interface should look like this.
|
|
|
|
|image15|
|
|
|
|
The final action to set up is the ``jump`` action. Bind the Space key and the gamepad's
|
|
A button.
|
|
|
|
|image16|
|
|
|
|
Your jump input action should look like this.
|
|
|
|
|image18|
|
|
|
|
That's all the actions we need for this game. You can use this menu to label any
|
|
groups of keys and buttons in your projects.
|
|
|
|
In the next part, we'll code and test the player's movement.
