Inventory Tetris V2
Added 2024-12-25 09:28:28 +0000 UTCHi!
Tomorrow I will be ending my holiday break and returning back to the home office.
I have also a small christmas surprise :)
Back in Unity, I had a pretty sweet inventory system which was based on this multi-cell inventory tetris style (like in Diablo, Tarkov etc).
This inventory style has always been the end-choice for this game, but once I ported the game to Godot, I went with more simple approach (single-cell) to save time and keep things as straight-forward as possible.
However, I learned a lot from that porting journey and during my holiday break, I decided to do a little test and spent around 4h hours of trying to implement the tetris-inventory in Godot.
To keep long story short, in 4 hours I managed to get all the necessary tetris-inventory features done and much more "elegantly" than in Unity. For example this multi-cell inventory takes around 5x less code than the Unity one and is much more lightweight performance wise.
So, since this little holiday test went so smoothly, the tetris-inventory will return to the commercial branch next year.
ps. Patch 3 hotfix will be released on this Friday.
