Touch Joystick with C# & Godot [Andromedoom Dev Log 1]

👾Welcome to the Andromedoom dev logs! In episode 1, I'm presenting a tutorial on how I built the mobile touch joystick with my Android. In the dev log, I will be discussing the graphics and gameplay design, and the intended programme to completion. I hope you enjoy this video series and stick around for the game's development! 👋

📻 Addenda:

1. You can use Normal.GetSize() and assign that to the buttonSize or use it directly instead of assigning GetHeight() and GetWidth() to a new vector.
2. To get the player node, you can simply use GetNode(/root/...) instead of using GetTree().Root.GetNode(... ).
3. Note that player movement doesn't take into account the rotation of the player pad. I will cover this in the next episode, but this can simply be solved by using Transform.Basis.Xform(movementVector). This multiplies the movement vector by the basis matrix of the object which can then be fed into the MoveAndCollide function.
