GDScript

Inherits: Script < Resource < RefCounted < Object

A script implemented in the GDScript programming language.

Description

A script implemented in the GDScript programming language, saved with the .gd extension. The script extends the functionality of all objects that instantiate it.

Calling new creates a new instance of the script. Object.set_script extends an existing object, if that object's class matches one of the script's base classes.

If you are looking for GDScript's built-in functions, see @GDScript instead.
