--- name: godot-csharp-api description: Godot 4 C# API reference skill. Use when answering questions about Godot 4 C# development, class methods, properties, signals, enums, or constants. Provides condensed C#-only API docs for all ~1,065 Godot 4 engine classes, split into domain-specific files. --- # Godot 4 C# API Reference Skill This skill provides access to condensed, C#-specific Godot 4 API reference documentation. All content is C#-only: - Method names are **PascalCase** (e.g., `AddChild`, `GetNode`, `EmitSignal`) - Property names are **PascalCase** (e.g., `GlobalPosition`, `ProcessMode`) - Types use C# and Godot C# bindings: `string`, `float`, `bool`, `Godot.Collections.Array`, `StringName`, `NodePath`, `Variant`, etc. - Code examples are C# only; all GDScript has been stripped ## Skill Files — Load as needed When the user asks about a Godot class or concept, identify its domain from the table below, then read the corresponding file from `refernces/` to answer the question. For broad questions, start with `godot_csharp_core.md` as it contains the most fundamental classes. | File | Domain / Contents | | ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `godot_csharp_core.md` | Object, Engine, OS, SceneTree, MainLoop, RefCounted, Resource, ResourceLoader/Saver, Performance, WorkerThreadPool, Thread, Mutex, Semaphore, ClassDB | | `godot_csharp_nodes_2d.md` | Node2D, Sprite2D, AnimatedSprite2D, Camera2D, CanvasItem, CanvasLayer, TileMap, Line2D, Polygon2D, CollisionShape2D, RayCast2D, CharacterBody2D, RigidBody2D, Area2D, joints | | `godot_csharp_nodes_3d.md` | Node3D, MeshInstance3D, Camera3D, lights (Directional/Omni/Spot), GPUParticles3D, Skeleton3D, CharacterBody3D, RigidBody3D, Area3D, VehicleBody3D, navigation 3D | | `godot_csharp_physics.md` | PhysicsServer2D/3D, PhysicsBody2D/3D, PhysicsDirectBodyState, shape classes, joints 3D, collision query parameters | | `godot_csharp_ui_controls.md` | Control, Button, Label, LineEdit, TextEdit, RichTextLabel, Container variants, Panel, FileDialog, Window, PopupMenu, Tree, ItemList, Slider, ScrollBar, ColorPicker, GraphEdit | | `godot_csharp_rendering.md` | RenderingServer, RenderingDevice, Viewport, SubViewport, Environment, Sky, Material variants, Shader, VisualShader, Mesh variants, MultiMesh, SurfaceTool, MeshDataTool | | `godot_csharp_audio.md` | AudioStreamPlayer (2D/3D), AudioServer, AudioStream variants, all AudioEffect\* classes | | `godot_csharp_input.md` | Input, InputMap, InputEvent variants (Key, Mouse, Joypad, Action, Touch, MIDI) | | `godot_csharp_animation.md` | AnimationPlayer, AnimationTree, AnimationMixer, all AnimationNode\* classes, Tween, Tweener variants | | `godot_csharp_resources.md` | Texture variants, Image, Gradient, Curve, Font variants, TileSet, StyleBox variants, Theme, PackedScene, Animation, Noise/FastNoiseLite | | `godot_csharp_networking.md` | HTTPClient, HTTPRequest, WebSocketPeer, ENetMultiplayerPeer, MultiplayerAPI, StreamPeer variants, PacketPeer variants, Crypto, TLSOptions | | `godot_csharp_filesystem.md` | FileAccess, DirAccess, ProjectSettings, ConfigFile, JSON, XMLParser, ZIPReader, ZIPPacker | | `godot_csharp_math_types.md` | Vector2/2i/3/3i/4/4i, Transform2D/3D, Basis, Quaternion, AABB, Rect2/2i, Plane, Color, Projection, RID | | `godot_csharp_editor.md` | All Editor\* classes (EditorPlugin, EditorScript, EditorInspector, EditorFileSystem, etc.) | | `godot_csharp_misc_part1.md` | A–N classes not in other domains (~285 classes including Node, SceneTree-related, GDExtension, etc.) | | `godot_csharp_misc_part2.md` | N–Z classes not in other domains (~135 classes including Signal buses, XR, callable utilities, etc.) | ## Routing Heuristic - **Scene tree, nodes, lifecycle** → core.md + nodes_2d.md or nodes_3d.md - **2D gameplay** → nodes_2d.md + physics.md - **3D gameplay** → nodes_3d.md + physics.md - **UI / HUD** → ui_controls.md - **Visual effects, materials, shaders** → rendering.md - **Sound** → audio.md - **Player input** → input.md - **Animations, tweens** → animation.md - **Images, fonts, themes** → resources.md - **Multiplayer, HTTP** → networking.md - **File I/O, settings** → filesystem.md - **Math, geometry** → math_types.md - **Editor tooling / plugins** → editor.md - **Unknown class** → search misc_part1.md then misc_part2.md - For broad questions, load core.md first as it contains the most fundamental classes ## Notes - Godot version: **4.x** (stable) - Generated from the official Godot HTML documentation - Properties are listed as `Type Name = default` — these are C# property accessors - `[virtual]` methods are overridable in subclasses - `[static]` methods are called on the class, not an instance
