Introduction

This editor plugin adds an option in Project Settings for a default Environment resource used when editing 2D scenes. This allows you to directly see how something will look in your main/world scene, without having to copy paste the WorldEnvironment node into the new scene you're working on. This option is located at Project Settings > Rendering > Environment > 2d Default Environment

Details

This plugin is meant to fix a discrepancy in functionality in the Godot engine. Currently, there exists a setting for an Environment resource to be used in the 3D editor (if one is not already present), but such a setting does not exist for the 2D editor. Hence why this plugin exists.

This plugin works by adding a WorldEnvironment node with the specified Environment resource to every scene you look at. This node isn't visible in the SceneTree, and it is not saved.

• The Environment resource used is specified in Project Settings > Rendering > Environment > 2d Default Environment
• This plugin does not add a WorldEnvironment node to a scene if one is already present.
• This plugin does not add WorldEnvironment nodes to 3D nor empty scenes.
