Camera Related Methods

Create CameraTargetSettings

var camera_target_settings = CameraTargetSettings.new()
camera_target_settings._target_id = “Any ID”
camera_target_settings._is_active_target = true
camera_target_settings._visible_size = Vector2(100, 100)
add_child(camera_target_settings)
camera_target_settings.position = Vector2(100, 100)

Register Created CameraTargetSettings to Any ZoomCamera2D

$ZoomCamera2D.regist_target(camera_target_settings.get_instance_id())

Unregister CameraTargetSettings from ZoomCamera2D

$ZoomCamera2D.unregist_target(camera_target_settings.get_instance_id())

FaceDirectionSettings (Direction of Gaze)

• set_face_direction: The first argument specifies the angle of gaze direction, and the second argument specifies whether to flip.
• get_face_direction: Returns the angle of the gaze direction.

---

Other Methods

Register Game Object Created in GDScript with AGMakerManager

AGMakerManager.regist_game_object(“TargetNode”)

Retrieve Currently Running Game Scene

get_current_game_scene()

func _ready() -> void:
    var game_scene = AGMakerManager.get_current_game_scene()
    print("*** get current scene = ", game_scene.name)
    pass

Signal List

GameObject

• Save/Load Related Signals

on_saved(int slot, Object object)
on_loaded(int slot, Object object)

AGMakerManager

• Save/Load Related Signals

on_saved(int slot)
on_loaded(int slot)

• Scene Transition Related Signals

game_scene_about_to_change(current: Object)

This signal fires just before scene transition; current contains the game scene before transition.

game_scene_changed(current: Object)

This signal fires after scene transition; current contains the game scene after transition.

※ The type is Object due to Godot’s specification; please cast it to GameScene or Node2D as needed.

Sample Code:

func _ready() -> void:
    # Connect to signal for pre-scene transition event
    AGMakerManager.game_scene_about_to_change.connect(_on_before_change_scene)
    # Connect to signal for post-scene transition event
    AGMakerManager.game_scene_changed.connect(_on_after_change_scene)
    pass

func _on_before_change_scene(current_scene: GameScene):
    print("*** on before change scene = ", current_scene.name)
    pass

func _on_after_change_scene(current_scene: GameScene):
    print("*** on after change scene = ", current_scene.name)
    pass
