Inventory System 2 Alpha 4 available

March 20, 2025

This release finally uses Godot Engine 4.4. It adds the GGCraftingSystem singleton and updates the GGInteractable2DStrategyCrafting class to use it. The crafting editor nodes now have prefixes, which makes it much easier to search for specific recipe or item nodes in larger crafting libraries.

Some syntactic sugar was added as well. You can now easily iterate over an GGInventory object to iterate over its contents:

var inventory: GGInventory = $GGInventory

for item: GGItemData in inventory:
    if not item: # skip nulls
      continue
    print(item)

The inventory addon now also includes an export plugin, which automatically excludes the editor addons from being included in exported games. This helps reduce the size of the .pck file.

To make interactions easier, the addon now includes a GGInteractable2DStrategyExpression class. This makes it easy to add one-off interaction integrations without having to create a new class.

For additional details, please see the alpha 4 changelog.

    Toggling Visibility of Nested CanvasLayers

    I had a setup with nested CanvasLayer nodes. Toggling the visibility of the root CanvasLayer doesn’t hide any nested CanvasLayer nodes. My solution was to listen to the visibility_changed signal, find any CanvasLayer child nodes, and apply the same visibility to them.
