BasicGame - Script Editing Setup

Script editing / Editing .tscn files outside of Godot editor

It’s not great to use the Godot editor for editing C# scripts. We prefer to use Visual Studio, but with any text editor you can build changes made in Godot.

Visual Studio

Bigger install, full ide, code completion

Visual Studio Code

Smaller, quicker to load a project directory, code completion, has a terminal.

Sublime Text

Smaller text editing, this is good for using saved directories and viewing the contents of the games app_data and logs.

Godot Editor

Editor Settings > Mono > Editor
