Honestly if it wasn't for your videos I would've given up on Godot forever ago. THANK YOU!

You are like the only person on YouTube doing Godot C# tutorials

[moroastray]

You have a real talent for teaching, this was excellent thank you

[aphemra]

You know, I have a degree in game programming and a good amount of experience in Unity, Unreal, and now diving into Godot.

And events/signals have always been something I personally took a long time to wrap my head around. But man, if a professor would have explained them like this back in school, I probably would have had a much easier time. Lmao.

Best signals guide for godot C# i've seen so far. Thank you!

[alapidis]

I love how simple and straight forward you present this. I've seen so many videos when I was learning about events back in the day that got into the weeds rather then showing simple use case examples first to get people comfortable with it. Because of that events were this confusing black box for way too long for me. I wish I had seen a video like this on events back then. Great job!

[szu]

You explain things very clearly and with examples, I appreciate it

[DehkiaSK]

You sir are a gem! I love you, consider me your newest subscriber. I can't wait to receive a new notification from your channel!

[kauuanxD]

This process is very unclear in the docs
it's very helpful, thanks!

[Verion]

this helped me so much wow i was so stuck all day trying to send the fruit count from my player to a gui element lol

[bombrman]

I like it how you have a drawing on the whiteboard on each frame and video, love your efforts

[JustifiedSoftworks]

Excellent video, you have a good teaching style.

[imbafrog]

Your videos are a god-send. I love every single one. Keep up the great job.

I was looking forward to this video, it helped so much, thank you! I'm not 100% there on how the syntax is working with how you've explained the delegated functions though. In the context of the timer code you made at 12:00, is _timer.Timeout accessing a list of methods in the _timer object then, and adding to that?

[stevendorries]

I suspect that emitting a Godot signal involves a P/Invoke behind the scenes, is that correct to your knowledge?

[michaelkimball]

Is there a way to use C# events and have them show up in the Godot UI?

[Frazer]

northBox.BodyEntered += OnNorthBoxBodyEntered;
northBox.BodyExited += OnBodyExited;

how you said i should do it vs how i was doing

southBox.Connect("body_entered", new Callable(this,
southBox.Connect("body_exited", new Callable(this, nameof(OnBodyExited)));

pretty wild one is alot easier to use yet the docs tell us to do it another way. Ill be looking forward on your Events video.

[Frazer]

does this work in scripts where the thing you wanna emit is a child of the node? For example i have a tranisiton scene, that has a child animationplayer, im trying to emit a signal when the animation finished playing. In the ready of the transition scene i cannot do

private AnimationPlayer animationPlayer;

public override void _Ready()
{
animationPlayer =
+= OnAnimationFinish;
} i get an error stating no overload for OnAnimationfinish(string) matches delegate
im forced to do animationPlayer.Connect("animation_finished", new Callable(this, nameof(OnAnimationFinish)));
