Seeker's Simple Notifications

⚙ Seeker's Simple Notifications is a modulable, open and robust Notification System for you to use in your Godot 4.6+ projects. Enjoy the peace of mind of a ready to use, fully commented and easily expandable addon ! 

The code is available on Github and you can try a build online directly on itch.io !

💻 Features

In short, you send notifications objects to an autoload that handles the UI.

Global-level features :

• Receive notifications and display them !
• You can set Project-Wide defaults values for all options,  and tune a specific notification to override theses defaults !
• Limit (or don't) the amount of simultaneous notifications on screen at the same time.
  • Notifications sent but not displayed are kept in a queue and are displayed once there's enough space !
  • Notifications can be dismissed by clicking or by letting them expire after a while. This create space for more !

• Store "named" notifications to invoke and reuse later !
  

The Humble Notification :

• Customize the Big Three of Achievements : Icon, Title, Description.
• Can play a sound on being displayed ! PYLONS !
• Control how and where (which corner) the notifications are displayed.
• Presets animations for spawn and fade.
• Display their remaining lifetime (can be disabled) thanks to a slick progress bar.
• Can make your actual taskbar icon blink! (but only if you want it too...)
• Super easy styling with Godot's Theming feature.

Additional Stuff :

• Playable demo scene
  • Never wonder how to integrate it into your game again. Just look at how I did it !
• Fully commented code for easier onboarding and learning.
  • Know what the classes are and do.
    
  • Know what the variables are and what they impact.
  • Know what the functions do and how they work.
• Many documentation files ! Check out Included Documentation below.

⚡ 4.6 & 4.7 Animations

The current animation is a simple fade in/out. It's really basic but does the job.

Godot 4.7 is coming soon and add a way to make complex UI animations in a super easy way. I will add more animations options to the pack once Godot 4.7 is here ! You can do them for 4.6 and under if you really need them for like tommorow, good luck and tell me how you did it !

4.6 Pack will of course stay available once 4.7 releases and I've made more animations.

🎯 Why should I use this ?

• 🔰 Godot beginners - Learn from clean, documented and organic code made with NO AI.
• 🕑 Game jam developers - Drop the presets in and be done with it !
• ♾ Professional developers - Want an extensible and customizable base for your notifications ? This is it.
• ⏭ Solodevs - Save hours of development time !

🚀 Quick Start

1. Open your project in Godot 4.6+
   
2. Add the Simple Notification's folder to your project.
