Simple Free-Look Camera

A C# implementation of the SimpleFreeLookCamera found in the AssetStore:

Original description:

A simple 3D 100-line free-look camera for Godot 4.0 that mimics the functionality of the editor's camera for in-game use.

Ported from Richardhyy's Godot 4.0 version, who ported from Adamviola's Godot 3.2 version.

Why should you use the C# version?

• If you need to interact with the camera from your C# code you'll need the C# version of it. Currently, there is no easy way to perform this: Referencing a custom GDScript class from C# - Can it be done?!?! Cross-language scripting
• If you want your project to be fully written in C# and you need a free camera.
• [You, the reader, place any other reason here]

Installation

Attach FreeLookCameraBase.cs or FreeLookCamera.cs to your Camera3D node. That's it!

• Attaching FreeLookCameraBase behaves exactly like the original GD script version.

• If you attach FreeLookCamera.cs instead, you'll be able to switch from your current game camera's to the free one, just setting the Enabled property of it. For instance by handling an input action from your script:

...
if (Input.IsActionJustReleased("ToggleFreeCameraAction"))
{
    _freeCameraNode.Enabled = !_freeCameraNode.Enabled;
}
...

Usage

Use W and S to move forward and backward.

Use A and D to move left and right.

Use Q and E to move up and down.

Roll the scroll wheel to increase and decrease movement speed.

Press shift to move faster, and hold alt to move slower.

Hold down the right mouse button to rotate the camera. There's a slider in the editor to control mouse sensitivity.
