I've posted my project AGWAN progress slides, as presented to the SNH Game Developer's meetup on August 15, 2024.

While most of my development has been dedicated to functionality I did not present, there was some tooling that I did show.

The new tooling includes two editors: a tree-menu editor and a category editor.

The tree-menu editor uses a tree dialog to organize hierarchical data. The editor enables me to edit and preview the menu, including icons. Edit-field values are constrained to those existing in a linked category table. These values are used to identify the active tool menu-item in the game scripts.

The category table includes a category code, item code, name, and unique key. The name fields are used to populate the enumerated edit fields in the tree editor. The key is used to generate a constant for use in Godot to identify that menu-item. These constants are written to a GDScript that is used by the Godot editor for code completion.

Both trees and categories are saved to a database, and are retrieved by name.

The progress slides can be viewed in the game project section of this site, August 15, 2024 Slides.
