Nov. 4, 2022 at 2:20 p.m.Minor quibble, I am running Godot 4 beta 3 and I can’t quite figure out how to get the editor to add the _ready() and _process(delta) functions and comments via one click as shown in the video. It could be helpful to know the shortcut to add boilerplate functions like that for folks new to the engine (like myself).
Great series though, I love the pacing and find myself not needing to run at 1,5x like I do with other similar tutorials!

_ready()and_process()functions from somewhere else, but you can also use “Default” template in the Attach Script dialog to achieve the same thing. Hope that helps and glad you’re enjoying the pacing - we spent a lot of time trying to get that right!fusion2k

I just had thought I missed a cool keyboard shortcut, thanks!
