2. Attach a script, name it anything.
This is where you store the traits. These would be things like the color the character's dialog is or their portrait texture.

Go back to the editor and build the project. You should see the new fields in the inspector. Don't fill out any of these fields yet.
A screen shot of code. It reads: using Godot; using Godot.Collections; using System; public partial class CharacterTraitsStore : Node { [Export] public Array<CharacterTrait> CharacterTraits; [Export] public CharacterTrait DefaultTrait; private Dictionary<string, CharacterTrait> _characterNameCharacterTraits; // Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time. public override void _Ready() { _characterNameCharacterTraits = new Dictionary<string, CharacterTrait>(); foreach(var trait in CharacterTraits) { _characterNameCharacterTraits.Add(trait.CharacterName, trait); } } public CharacterTrait GetTraitsByName(string characterName) { if (!_characterNameCharacterTraits.ContainsKey(characterName)) { return DefaultTrait; } return _characterNameCharacterTraits[characterName]; } } Screenshot of Godot editor with new fields in the inspector.

It is not an acceptable charactertrait to be

rude

or a jerk

it's nothing you keep

or be proud about

it is nothing

that makes you you

if it works within you social environment then change that environment by

daring to be attentive, considerate and friendly

Durchsetzungsvermögen als Charactertrait zu loben ist kompletter bullshit.

Wenn sich alle immer durchsetzen, wer steckt dann zurück?

6. Now we're going to add an easy way to grab a character's set of traits in code by modifying the CharacterTraitsStore script. For my game, it was most convienient to look up traits by the character's name.
using Godot; using Godot.Collections; using System; public partial class CharacterTraitsStore : Node { [Export] public Array<CharacterTrait> CharacterTraits; [Export] public CharacterTrait DefaultTrait; private Dictionary<string, CharacterTrait> _characterNameCharacterTraits; // Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time. public override void _Ready() { _characterNameCharacterTraits = new Dictionary<string, CharacterTrait>(); foreach(var trait in CharacterTraits) { _characterNameCharacterTraits.Add(trait.CharacterName, trait); } } public CharacterTrait GetTraitsByName(string characterName) { if (!_characterNameCharacterTraits.ContainsKey(characterName)) { return DefaultTrait; } return _characterNameCharacterTraits[characterName]; } }

5. Now, in the CharacterTraitsStore tab in the Godot editor, you can select the each set of traits and set them to your desired values.

3. Create new node called CharacterTraitsStore and attach a new script to it. The key part of this new node is that it contains an exported Array of CharacterTraits.
