Installation
Copy the minos_uuid_generator directory into your res://addons/ directory. Then make sure to enable the plugin in Project Settings -> Plugins. For C# projects make sure to remember to build!
Usage In Editor
Create new
UUIDManagerorUUIDManagerCSharpnodeThat's it! The UUIID is generated automatically and is removed automatically when the node is removed.
Usage At Runtime - GDScript
1. Add a UUIDManager variable in the script you want to store the UUID node in
extends Node2. Set the variable by calling the
## Variables
var uuidNode : UUIDManagercreate_new_uuid() script at _ready(). The function takes in the parent to add the node to as a child.
extends Node
## Variables
var uuidNode : UUIDManager
func _ready():
uuidNode = MinosUUIDGenerator.create_new_uuid(self)
Usage At Runtime - C#
1. Add a UUIDManagerCSharp variable in the script you want to store the UUID node in
extends Node2. Set the variable by calling the
// Variables
public UUIDManagerCSharp uuidNodeCreateNewUUID() script at _Ready(). The function takes in the parent to add the node to as a child.
extends Node
// Variables
public UUIDManagerCSharp uuidNode
public override void _Ready():
uuidNode = MinosUUIDGeneratorCSharp.CreateNewUUID(this)
Set-Up Debugging Options
The MinosUUIDGenerator script comes with 4 variables for debugging. By default they're set to true.
GDScript:
static var printNewUUID : bool = true
static var printSuccessfulRemoval : bool = true
static var printFailedRemoval : bool = true
static var printNewUUIDNode : bool = true
C#:
static bool printNewUUID = true
static bool printSuccessfulRemoval = true
static bool printFailedRemoval = true
static bool printNewUUIDNode = true
printNewUUIDwill print a message when a new UUID is made and it's UUID.printSuccessfulRemovalwill print a message when a UUID is removed as well as the old UUID.printFailedRemovalwill print a message when a UUID was attempted to be removed but couldn't be found in the array.printNewUUIDNodewill print a message when a newUUIDManager/UUIDManagerCSharpnode is made.
