Any explanation?

This node look really cool!
But without any explanation noobs like me are lost.
I'm ectually trying to use it in a new project but I'm not able use it, a simple switch background color when a button is pressed on mobile cool be very usefull !

-Do we need to export it on https to make it work?
-Do we only need to import the godot-airconsole.gd as a singleton or there is more settings?
-what about the controller scene?
-what about the game scene?

thxs a lot anyway !

You'll need to copy/clone the repo into your addons folder as a folder called godot-airconsole.
From there you can either:

• Add AirConsole.gd as a singleton
• Or add AirConsole as a node into your main scene (should be available from the Add Node menu)

You'll also need to add this to your .html export.

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.airconsole.com/api/airconsole-1.7.0.js"></script>

The node is just an interface to talk to AirConsole API so there's no controller or game scene, both of which is up to your implementation.

Take a look at this node.
I pulled it from the game I made a year ago. IIRC everything in the game goes through the node: player joining, player quitting and gamepad inputs.

If you still got any questions, feel free to ask.

@DleanJeans I think it would be cool for this explanation in the repository readme or wiki :)

Thanks for the suggestion. It didn't happen to me that I should have added a README.
This actually needs an update since it was written when there was no way to call GDScript from JavaScript so I had to use a workaround. Since then there has been updates to the JavaScript singleton. I'll try to push an update over the next week.

Ohhh cool, I didn't happen to know about this new feature.
By the way, no stress, do the update when you have a little time. I'm developing a game that I would like to test with the air console functionality, but first I still have to make the game playable 😅

@DleanJeans Just a suggestion, after doing the update, can you make a very simple minigame/example on how to use it?
I understand things better by seeing examples 😅 : )
