Godot bulk mesh collision shape exporter

Description

Quickly export collision shapes for all Meshes that are children of a Node3D. Very useful if you are working with asset packs.

System Requirements

There is a decent chance the plugin will work on other versions as well. Tested Versions:

• Godot 4.4

Installation

The easiest way to install the Plugin will be using Godots Integrated AssetLib. Refer to the Godot Docs for details.

Usage

• Go to the 3D workspace
• Select any node that inherits from Node3D
• In the viewport toolbar there will be a button called Bulk Mesh2Collision
• Upon Selecting this button you will be presented with 4 options
  • Export Collision Shapes
    Export the collision shapes with the configured settings. If you don't care about the settings you can just use this without reading the rest of the docs.
  • General Search Depth
    Specifys how far away a children can be until it will no longer be included in the export.
    Example: If this is 1 the base node and its direct Children will be included in the export. Children of Children will not be included. If this is 0 only the selected Nodes will be used for the export and not their children
  • Search Depth After Fist Mesh
    Specifys how far away a children can be until it will no longer be included in the export only counting Nodes of type MeshInstance3D.
    Example: If this is 0 the first meshes found after the selected Node will be included in the export but not their children. If your selected Node has 3 children which are all Meshes all these 3 children would be included. But if the children are nested (children of 1 another) only the highest level child would be included. If his is 1 and your selected Node is a Mesh and has any Node which doesn't inherit from MeshInstance3D which itself has a Meshinstance3D as a child. Both the selected Node and the nested MeshInstance3D would be included in the export despite the Meshinstance3D not beeing a direct child of the selected Node.
  • Simplify Shapes
    Toggles the simplify parameter of create_convex_collision (Simplifys the generated Collision Shapes for better performance)
