Using GDExtension
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
**🛈 See also:** `What is GDExtension? <https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/scripting/gdextension/what_is_gdextension.html#what-is-gdextension>`_
|
|
|
|
LimboAI can be used as either a C++ module or as a GDExtension shared library.
|
|
The module version is the most feature-full and slightly more performant, but
|
|
it requires using custom engine builds including the export templates.
|
|
|
|
**🛈 Note:** Precompiled builds are available on the official
|
|
`LimboAI GitHub <https://github.com/limbonaut/limboai#getting-limboai>`_ page.
|
|
|
|
GDExtension version is more convenient to use, as you don't need a custom engine
|
|
build. You can simply download the extension and put it inside your project.
|
|
However, it has certain limitations, described in detail in the next section.
|
|
|
|
Whichever you choose to use, remember, your project will stay compatible with
|
|
both and you can transition from one to the other any time.

Limitations of the GDExtension version
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
GDExtension is the most convenient way of using the LimboAI plugin, but it comes
|
|
with certain limitations.
|
|
|
|
* Built-in documentation is not available. The plugin will open online documentation instead when requested.
|
|
* Documentation tooltips are not available.
|
|
* Handy :ref:`class_BBParam` property editor is not available in the extension due to dependencies on the engine classes that are not available in the Godot API.
