godot_scene_swap_plugin

Helps you change your scene gracefully!

How to use:

1. Just download this repo (or get it from asset_lib)
2. Activate plugin
3. Use singleton "scene_manager" to load your scene like: scene_manager.change_scene_to("res://demo/large_scene.tscn")

Check the results.

How it works:

1. "change_scene_to" is called;
2. Fade out (from loading_scene) is called;
3. Once anim is finished (notified from signal animation_finished);
4. Background thread is invoked;
5. Current scene is released;
6. New scene is loaded
7. Progress is updated
8. Once load is finished
9. New scene is added to node three
10. Once scene is ready (signal three_entered has been invoked), fade_in is called
11. After fade_in is finished, loading_scene is hidden;
12. Background thread is paused

Creating new transitions:

1. Change/copy the included scene 'loading_scene.tscn';
2. Create/change your animations;
3. Keep emiting the signal animation_finished (with names fade_in or fade_out);
4. Keep the methods fade_in and fade_out (plugin call these);
5. Create/change the progress bar;

So far, only one loading scene is used, then, if you want to show more than one, changes on scene_transition_manager.gd is required
