Doesn't work

[plasmabit]

• Can't type into the console.
• Shows a lot of errors (aka class name ConsoleNode hides a global script class)
• Shows error file is not found
• Don't know if ConsoleContainer node is supposed to be a child of anything in particular, but I tried making it a child of a root, and of UI Canvas. It shows up only when it's the child of UI Canvas and you can't type into it.
• If you change the folder name from godot-console-master to godot-console (because in errors it says it is searching for it), then it crashes the project on play

I am using Godot v4.1.1.stable.official [bd6af8e0e]

Don't know if ConsoleContainer node is supposed to be a child of anything in particular, but I tried making it a child of a root, and of UI Canvas. It shows up only when it's the child of UI Canvas and you can't type into it.

An example of a scene hierarchy:

ConsoleContainer can be a child node of any node that inherits from Control.

If you change the folder name from godot-console-master to godot-console (because in errors it says it is searching for it), then it crashes the project on play

If you do not use GIT, then after manual unpacking the folder should be renamed to godot-console. Example:

I can’t say why your input doesn’t work or errors appear without an example project. If you attach a test project, I will try to help you 🙂

Hi, I've just installed this - you should really consider adding that into your installation instructions (which say to clone the repo and add, though the release download is correct)

... but because it isn't mentioned anywhere at all, and the script won't work without this seemingly random change (rename folder to 'godot-console')... it's not clear to the user what is actually going on.
