Hugo Locurcio 31d1c0c112 Remove old and unused project settings, update various demos for 4.2 (#1024)
- Move all demo projects that don't require Forward+/Mobile-only features
  to the Compatibility rendering method. This improves performance significantly
  on low-end devices and ensures visuals are identical to a web export
  of the demo.
- Set deadzone on all inputs to 0.2 for better gamepad usability.
- Remove reliance on `default_env.tres` to use built-in Environment
  resources in the main scene instead (which follows the preview environment
  workflow).
- Remove notices pointing to GDNative or VisualScript, since both were
  removed in 4.0.
- Various bug fixes and usability tweaks to 10+ demos.

Custom Node Plugin Demo

This plugin demo shows one way to create a custom node type in Godot. For more information, see this documentation article: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/plugins/editor/making_plugins.html#a-custom-node

A custom node type:

  • Derives from an existing node type.

  • Shows up in the type list when adding a new node.

  • Has a script attached to add new behavior.

  • May have a custom icon.

The way it works in this plugin is using the add_custom_type and remove_custom_type in the plugin script file. Using this method you can specify any name, base type, script, and icon for your custom node.

There is also another way to add custom node types, which is using the class_name keyword in a script, or using the [GlobalClass] attribute above a class declaration in C#.
