SofiaConsole

An easy to use in-game dev console for Godot 4 (C#)

Getting Started

How to install

  • Enable the plugin
  • Make sure, that res://addons/sofiaconsole/Console.tscn is a global autoload with the name Console

Commands

How to add commands

Simply add the [ConsoleCommand] attribute to a method to register it as a command. A command must always provide a command name to be executed. You can also optionally provide a Description and Usage string.

Examples

  • [ConsoleCommand("mycommand")]
  • [ConsoleCommand("mycommand", Description = "This should describe my command")]
  • [ConsoleCommand("move", Description = "Moves player", Usage = "move [x] [y] [z]")]

Helpers

There are a few helper methods your command can call.

  • Console.Instance.ClearConsole(); - clears the console
  • Console.Instance.Space(); - adds a blank line
  • Console.Instance.Space(n); - adds n blank lines
  • Console.Instance.Print("Hello World"); - adds a string as output (PrintType is Default)
    • Console.Instance.Print("Hello World", Console.PrintType.Default); - white
    • Console.Instance.Print("Hello World", Console.PrintType.Hint); - grey
    • Console.Instance.Print("Hello World", Console.PrintType.Warning); - orange
    • Console.Instance.Print("Hello World", Console.PrintType.Error); - red
    • Console.Instance.Print("Hello World", Console.PrintType.Success); - green
