I had some very weird experience with the Godot engine today.

I made a new scene that inherits from Button, and gave it a class_name so I can instantiate it easily from code. And when I do this, connecting the Button's signals to the function inside the code of the extended button scene, the signals don't work. But if I connect it from code from the scene's _ready function, then everything is a-OK.

Is this a #bug or did I miss something in the manual?

What is your favorite Godot Engine plugin that is not made by yourself? I am trying to come to terms with Phantom Camera because it seems powerful and useful. But I keep making my own silly Camera3D nodes with custom controls. Phantom also has a shaker component but I was already using this Shaker plugin which I might try to phase out. Sometimes less is more, as they say. #GodotEngine

Thank you to @godotengine@mastodon.gamedev.place for responding to people deluging the #GodotEngine project with #AISlop from #LLMs. Their clear statement of #NoAI policy: “No autonomous AI agent use or vibe coding. […] No use of AI to generate substantial pieces of code. […] No AI-generated text in human-to-human communication. […] All PRs must be reviewed and approved by a human before merging. […]” https://godotengine.org/article/contribution-policy-2026/ May more #FreeSoftware projects do the same. #ArtificialStupidity #HumanLabour #Godot

For years we have been overwhelmed by the volume of code contributions we have to review, especially from new contributors. AI has made the problem much worse. That's why we are taking steps to reduce the burden on maintainers while still welcoming new contributors: #godotenginehttps://godotengine.org/article/contribution-policy-2026/

These MeshInstance3D are all the same size and at the same level... Understandably, there's an amount of flickering going on when they overlap. Question for the Godot folks, is there way to tell the Engine how to prioritize the drawing of meshes in order to eliminate this flickering? Short of making every mesh slightly different, or changing the position by a tiny amount, what's the best way to handle this? #GodotEngine #SeriousQuestion

Hi — I'm the engineer behind Vav Labs, an independent practice out of Turin. Writing software since 2001; lately I build production tools for game devs. Right now that's PathForge (a Godot pathfinding toolkit) and BugLens for Unity. What I'll post here: measured benchmarks, the 1am bug, the tradeoff I didn't see coming. Less launch, more workshop notebook. If you're into Godot navigation or Unity tooling, say hi. #Introduction #GodotEngine #GameDev #Unity
