Overview
GridPlacement 6.0 uses a thin, engine-agnostic logging interface in its Core layer. The plugin itself does not own a Godot-specific logger. Instead, the host game (for example, Thistletide) is responsible for wiring logs into Godot or any other engine.
This guide explains:
- How GridPlacement Core logs events.
- How games should provide an
ILoggerimplementation. - How to integrate with Chickensoft.Log and Chickensoft.Log.Godot on the Godot side.
