# Debug drawing utility for Godot

This is an add-on for debug drawing in 3D and for some 2D overlays, which is written in `C++` and can be used with `GDScript` or `C#`.

Based on my previous addon, which was developed [only for C#](https://github.com/DmitriySalnikov/godot_debug_draw_cs), and which was inspired by [Zylann's GDScript addon](https://github.com/Zylann/godot_debug_draw)

## [Documentation](https://dd3d.dmitriysalnikov.ru/docs/)

## [Godot 3 version](https://github.com/DmitriySalnikov/godot_debug_draw_3d/tree/godot_3)

* Billboard opaque square
* Box
* Camera Frustum
* Cylinder
* Gizmo
* Grid
* Line
* Line Path
* Line with Arrow
* Plane
* Points
* Position 3D (3 crossing axes)
* Sphere

This addon supports working with several World3D and different Viewports.
There is also a no depth test mode and other settings that can be changed for each instance.

This library supports double-precision builds, for more information, [see the documentation](https://dd3d.dmitriysalnikov.ru/docs/?page=md_docs_2DoublePrecision.html).

## Download

To download, use the [Godot Asset Library](https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/1766) or use one of the stable versions from the [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/DmitriySalnikov/godot_debug_draw_3d/releases) page.

For versions prior to `1.4.5`, just download one of the `source codes` in the assets. For newer versions, download `debug-draw-3d_[version].zip`.

### Installation

* Close editor
* Copy `addons/debug_draw_3d` to your `addons` folder, create it if the folder doesn't exist
* Launch editor

## Examples

More examples can be found in the `examples_dd3d/` folder.

Simple test:

```gdscript
func _process(delta: float) -> void:
    var _time = Time.get_ticks_msec() / 1000.0
    var box_pos = Vector3(0, sin(_time * 4), 0)
    var line_begin = Vector3(-1, sin(_time * 4), 0)
    var line_end = Vector3(1, cos(_time * 4), 0)

    DebugDraw3D.draw_box(box_pos, Quaternion.IDENTITY, Vector3(1, 2, 1), Color(0, 1, 0))
    DebugDraw3D.draw_line(line_begin, line_end, Color(1, 1, 0))
    DebugDraw2D.set_text("Time", _time)
    DebugDraw2D.set_text("Frames drawn", Engine.get_frames_drawn())
    DebugDraw2D.set_text("FPS", Engine.get_frames_per_second())
    DebugDraw2D.set_text("delta", delta)
```

An example of using scoped configs:

```gdscript
@tool
extends Node3D

func _ready():
    # Set the base scoped_config.
    # Each frame will be reset to these scoped values.
    DebugDraw3D.scoped_config().set_thickness(0.1).set_center_brightness(0.6)

func _process(delta):
    # Draw using the base scoped config.
    DebugDraw3D.draw_box(Vector3.ZERO, Quaternion.IDENTITY, Vector3.ONE * 2, Color.CORNFLOWER_BLUE)
    if true:
        # Create a scoped config that will exist until exiting this if.
        var _s = DebugDraw3D.new_scoped_config().set_thickness(0).set_center_brightness(0.1)
        # Draw with a thickness of 0
        DebugDraw3D.draw_box(Vector3.ZERO, Quaternion.IDENTITY, Vector3.ONE, Color.RED)
        # If necessary, the values inside this scope can be changed
        # even before each call to draw_*.
        _s.set_thickness(0.05)
        DebugDraw3D.draw_box(Vector3(1,0,1), Quaternion.IDENTITY, Vector3.ONE * 1, Color.BLUE_VIOLET)
```

> [!TIP]
>
> If you want to use a non-standard Viewport for rendering a 3d scene, then do not forget to specify it in the scoped config!

## API

This project has a separate [documentation](https://dd3d.dmitriysalnikov.ru/docs/) page.

Also, a list of all functions is available in the documentation inside the editor (see `DebugDraw3D` and `DebugDraw2D`).

## Known issues and limitations

The text in the keys and values of a text group cannot contain multi-line strings.

The entire text overlay can only be placed in one corner.

[Frustum of Camera3D does not take into account the window size from ProjectSettings](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/70362).
