add-mechanic

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents common AI-generated Godot mistakes by guiding you to implement gameplay mechanics using correct GDScript 4.x patterns instead of outdated Godot 3 syntax that would fail at runtime.

Core Features & Use Cases

• GDScript 4.x correctness guardrails: enforces modern syntax for exports, onready, signals, typing/returns, movement APIs, parent calls, timers/await, and unique-node access.
• Movement mechanics templates: provides platformer, top-down, and point-and-click movement patterns built around CharacterBody2D and Godot 4 movement conventions.
• Core gameplay component patterns: includes Health/Damage, Inventory (resource-based items), and Save/Load (ConfigFile and JSON) implementations designed for reuse across entities.

Use Case: You’re building a small RPG scene and want the player to move correctly in Godot 4, have health with a death signal, carry stackable items, and persist position/inventory across sessions.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to use the add-mechanic skill to implement a Godot 4.x movement + health system for your character, including an inventory resource and save/load using user:// files.
