I spent most of last night grasping how godot’s 2d lighting works. In short I’ve figured it out, but it presents some problems with how to use it in an overhead game when completely blocking out unlit areas (a lot of games cheat by having most light-blocking walls still be visible when unlit since all terrain is visible, or in the case of platformers the “center” area of platforms is just a black void anyway). Still these are just test tiles from an old game, I think when the art is designed around how the lighting is works there won’t be too many issues? Sew’s working on it now at any rate, I’m moving on to guard AI while he figures it out.
