Godot 4 - Create 3D RTS style game

Create a worker unit in Godot 4 by inheriting a stone unit, adjusting scale and materials (albedo and emission), importing animations, and configuring a navigation agent for RTS movement.

Build and connect an animation tree for a 3d RTS unit, creating idle, build, attack, and walk states, using immediate switches, auto-advance, and smooth transitions with 0.3 timing.

Implement a Godot 4 unit selection system with a team-colored selection ring, detect units under the mouse, and support single and multi-unit selection.

Master unit movement in Godot 4 for a 3d rts game. Select units, issue move commands on a surface, and use a navigation mesh to compute closest points and velocity.

Learn to implement group selection in Godot 4 by creating a unit selector, drawing a mouse-driven selection rectangle, detecting units inside the box, and applying a selection limit.

Implement group movement in a Godot 4 3D RTS by looping through selected units and issuing move commands to a target, then plan circle and rectangle positioning to prevent clumping.

Learn to position units in a circle around a target by computing circle points with radius and center, iterating units and updating each unit's position using angle steps.

Position units in a rectangle by building a function that uses line positions and positions arrays. Compute lines, loop through units, and adjust x and z coordinates to form lines.

Build a Godot 4 graphical user interface by creating a layered canvas, adding texture rectangles for the information bar, minimap, selection bar, and main unit image, and assign textures.

Display selected units on a Godot 4 GUI grid by creating an eight-column image button grid, updating textures per unit, and refreshing via a unit selected signal.

Structure a 3d rts scene by creating a main building with a mesh static body, collision layers for fog of war, and unit spawn and destination points, plus build area.

In this Godot 4 3d rts lecture, implement building scripts by defining a building type enum, setting unit spawn arrays and costs, and managing selection, visibility, health, and construction state.

Create melee units in godot 4 by building a base unit script, extending it for loyal and warrior variants, and configuring weapons, cost, and damage through bone attachments.

Create a unit building scene in Godot 4, configure main and unit buildings with costs and unit images, then bake the nav mesh and test selection.

Learn to implement a responsive unit selection UI in Godot 4 by creating a four-column grid, configuring textures, and dynamically updating buttons and images to spawn workers and warriors.

Create a minerals UI in Godot 4 with a top-anchored minerals box and label, and implement spend/add functions that update the display for unit costs.

Spawn up to four units from the main building and unit building using a spawning panel with a progress bar, unit image buttons, and cancel options.

Learn to send spawned units to a new target position by implementing a move to function that uses the closest navigation point as the destination.

Fix bugs in the Godot 4 3D rts: prevent moving units when a main building is selected, fix spawning across multiple buildings, and tune navigation parameters for smoother paths.

Add a selected boolean to building script and toggle it in the select function; reveal unit progress container when current created units are not zero and the building is selected.

Implement Godot 4 fix for 3D RTS: copy code from spawn repeat into spawn function, adjust to twin dot play, and call spawn repeat when created units >= 1.

Fix the 3d navigation edge by tuning pathfinding: set max distance to five meters and time horizon to one second, enable debug, and offset destinations to prevent crowding.

Create a 3D health bar for units in Godot 4 by building a health ball, texture, and sprite 3D element, then instantiate the health bar on units and buildings.

Learn to implement building mechanics in Godot 4 for a 3D RTS. Manage construction state, placement, health, and activation, while guiding units to build and assist.

Create a minerals scene in Godot 4, set minerals as static bodies with collision, duplicate mesh instances, and enable units to mine the mineral field and return minerals to base.

Create a region with a collision shape to separate units in Godot 4 3D RTS. Track units entering and exiting, then apply a central XZ force to push them apart.

Add a melee attack system for 3d RTS units in Godot 4 by creating an attack radius, wiring body enter/exit signals, and implementing enemy detection and attack behavior.

Develop a Godot 4 3D RTS enemy AI by building a new enemy unit, grouping enemies, and implementing a 0.2 second search to attack the closest foe.
