I am experimenting with creating a pixel-art mobile game in Godot. I am having trouble with the viewport size regarding the pixel art assets. I've learned that I should set the scaling mode to integer, which adds black bars to the screen. My plan to get rid of the black bars is as follows:
- Find a way to resize the main viewport dynamically in runtime
- Calculate, based on the device's size, what size the viewport should be
- Apply that calculation when appropriate
Before I even try to get a calculation like that going, I want to make sure I can change the viewport's size in the code, which I couldn't figure out myself. I have tried the following:
- Changing the project settings in a
_ready function: Does nothing
- Changing the project settings in a
_process function: Does nothing
- Setting
get_viewport().size in a _ready function: Does nothing
- Setting
get_viewport().size in a _process function: Changes the size of the viewport, but without expanding it
- Setting
get_window().size in a _ready function: Does nothing
What else can I try?
Thanks, setting
get_window().content_scale_size = DisplayServer.window_get_size() / 3works! Now I only have to figure out what 3 stands for
