Hi everyone! Let’s create another 2D effect that we can use in a game as an obstacle or an energy weapon. We’ll program an animated jagged line that resembles a lightning bolt or an electrical discharge.

Welcome Programmers!
programming.dev is a collection of programming communities and other topics relevant to software engineers, hackers, roboticists, hardware and software enthusiasts, and more.
The site is primarily english with some communities in other languages. We are connected to many other sites using the activitypub protocol that you can view posts from in the “all” tab while the “local” tab shows posts on our site.
🔗 Site with links to all relevant programming.dev sites
🟩 Not a fan of the default UI? We have alternate frontends we host that you can view the same content from
ℹ️ We have a wiki site that communities can host documents on
⚖️ All users are expected to follow our Code of Conduct and the other various documents on our legal site
🏘️ Want to create a new community? Please follow our Community Guidelines
❤️ The site is run by a team of volunteers. If youre interested in donating to help fund things such as server costs you can do so here
💬 We have a microblog site aimed towards programmers available at https://bytes.programming.dev/
🛠️ We have a forgejo instance for hosting git repositories relating to our site and the fediverse. If you have a project that relates and follows our Code of Conduct feel free to host it there and if you have ideas for things to improve our sites feel free to create issues in the relevant repositories. To go along with the instance we also have a site for sharing small code snippets that might be too small for their own repository.
🌲 We have a discord server and a matrix space for chatting with other members of the community. These are bridged to each other (so you can interact with people using matrix from discord and vice versa.

Signed distance field raymarching in Godot 4, authored with nodes. Physics-driven metaballs melt into the SDF cubes in one fullscreen pass, and since every CSG op works on (color, distance) pairs, the colors blend along with the shapes.

Hello, everyone! Let’s again create a spatial shader for a 3D object. This time we’ll create a simple flag, make it wave gently in the wind, and demonstrate how we can dynamically control this effect in the vertex function.

I’m making a game where the player moves through an endless scrolling 2D world. Currently, I want the terrain to represent a sine wave, as shown in the provided illustration.
How should I setup my terrain scene to generate this terrain with collision? Or should the terrain generation be in the main game scene? If the later, what node structure should I use for my terrain?
