AutoLoad registration (basic)

Do NOT Load this file for expert architecture work — Project Settings → AutoLoad registration and typed-var hygiene are covered by official docs. Open only when a teammate needs a beginner checklist.

Register a Node Autoload

  1. Create res://autoloads/game_manager.gd extending Node.
  2. Project → Project Settings → Autoload → Add → name GameManager.
  3. Verify project.godot:
[autoload]
GameManager="*res://autoloads/game_manager.gd"

Access

func _ready() -> void:
    GameManager.game_started.connect(_on_started)

Prefer signals for state changes; do not reach into Autoload children from gameplay scenes. For boot-order, service locator, and safe scene switch — return to SKILL.md and the scripts under scripts/.
