Fox

🦊 Fox provides many tools to help develop with Godot Engine

Godot functions and libs

You can use elements from the /fox folder:

• generic static libs (Wait, __.Get, __.Set...)
• behaviours (button behaviour to use signal onPress, draggableCamera for a 2D camera to be...draggable)
• tween animations for your objects (Animate.show, Animate.to ...)
• handle sounds anywhere easily (Sound.play)

Few documentation links:

• general
• animation

Example

# showing the car smoothly
Animate.show(car)

# then wait for 2 seconds
var timer = Wait.start(car, 2)
yield(timer, 'timeout')

# then moving the car to (200, 200)
Animate.to(car, {
  propertyPath = 'position',
  toValue = Vector2(200, 200),
  duration = 0.5
})
