DANC

Description

The Day And Night Cycle (DANC) Plugin was developed and tested using the Godot Engine (in version 3.5.2 with OpenGL ES 2.0).
The plugin works directly in the Godot Editor and when running your project with the engine.
The plugin has four periods: dawn, morning, evening and night. Each period lasts two seconds.

Keyboard Inputs (Try Interacting With The Demo Above)

Enter Key: is responsible for start the plugin.

Spacebar Key: is responsible for pause and resume the plugin.

Esc Key: is responsible for restart the plugin.

Package Content

The package contains two files: "danc_plugin_(version).zip" is the plugin that I describe below and "danc_component_(version).zip" is the common node version of it, without needing the step by step, just add the files to the project and to the target scene.

Instructions For Use

1. In your Godot Project create a folder called "addons" and unzip the file "danc_plugin_(version).zip" inside the folder;

2. Go to "Projects > Project Settings > Plugins" and click on the "enable" box to enable the plugin;

3. In "Scene" click on the plus button to create a new node;

4. In the new window that appears type the name of the plugin "danc" in the search bar. Now double click on "danc" or click on "danc" and another on "create";

5. The "Danc Plugin" will be ready to be used in the editor and also when running your game.

As soon as you add the "danc" node to your scene, the scene will darken. Success!

You can enable the node in the editor by clicking on the "Playing" property box.
You can enable the node when running your game by keeping the "Playing" property checked.
You can change the duration and predominant color of each period by accessing the "Periods Dictionary" properties.

Note: try changing the "Period" property without checking the "Playing" property box. You will see the changes in the editor.
