Within a single canvas layer, nodes draw in scene tree order — nodes listed lower in the Scene panel draw on top. Use z_index to override without rearranging the tree.
# Draw this node above siblings (default z_index is 0)
z_index = 10
# Make z_index relative to parent (default: false = global)
z_as_relative = true
CanvasLayer creates a separate rendering layer with its own transform, independent of the camera. Higher layer values draw on top.
| Layer | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| -1 | Parallax backgrounds |
| 0 | Default game layer (all Node2D without CanvasLayer) |
| 1 | HUD / UI overlay |
| 2 | Pause menu, screen transitions |

Note: CanvasLayers are NOT required to control draw order. For objects within the same game world, use
z_indexor scene tree ordering. CanvasLayers are for elements that should be independent of the camera (HUD, parallax, transitions).
Camera2D works by modifying the viewport's canvas_transform. For manual control:
# Scroll the canvas directly (equivalent to camera movement)
get_viewport().canvas_transform = Transform2D(0, Vector2(-200, 0))
# Local to canvas (world) coordinates
var world_pos: Vector2 = get_global_transform() * local_pos
var local_pos: Vector2 = get_global_transform().affine_inverse() * world_pos
# Local to screen coordinates (accounts for camera, stretch, window)
var screen_pos: Vector2 = get_viewport().get_screen_transform() * get_global_transform_with_canvas() * local_pos
// Local to canvas (world) coordinates
Vector2 worldPos = GetGlobalTransform() * localPos;
Vector2 localFromWorld = GetGlobalTransform().AffineInverse() * worldPos;
// Local to screen coordinates
Vector2 screenPos = GetViewport().GetScreenTransform() * GetGlobalTransformWithCanvas() * localPos;
TileMapLayer (Godot 4.5+) is the modern API — one tilemap = one node = one layer. Drive painting with a TileSet resource (atlas + properties + physics + custom data). Use terrain autotiling for biome-aware tile selection, scene collection tiles for placing scene instances on tiles.
See references/tilemap.md for full TileSet setup, atlas / physics / terrain configuration, custom data on tiles, scene collection tiles, and the 4.5+ tile-collision-bump auto-merge fix.
Parallax2D (Godot 4.4+) replaces the older ParallaxBackground/ParallaxLayer pair. Set scroll_scale per layer (0 = static, 1 = follows camera 1:1, fractional values for depth). Add repeat_size for infinite tiling.
See references/parallax.md for
Parallax2Dsetup, side-scroller layer example, infinite repeat, split-screen parallax, common mistakes.
PointLight2D and DirectionalLight2D cast lighting onto sprites — pair with a normal map for 3D-style shading or use additive-blend illumination on flat sprites. Cast shadows with LightOccluder2D.
See references/lights-and-shadows.md for node overview, PointLight2D properties, shadow settings, cull masks, occluders, 2D normal maps, pixel-art lighting tips, and additive-sprite fake-light tricks.
GPUParticles2D for high counts (≥ 50 particles, GPU-driven), CPUParticles2D for low counts or platforms without GPU support. Both share the same ParticleProcessMaterial interface; differences are mainly performance.
See references/2d-particles.md for the GPU-vs-CPU distinguishing choices, basic setup, ParticleProcessMaterial 2D properties, emission from textures, flipbook, visibility rect, common 2D recipes.
Override _draw() on any CanvasItem to draw lines, polygons, text, or arbitrary shapes. Call queue_redraw() to trigger a re-render (never call _draw() directly).
See references/custom-drawing.md for the
_draw()method, redrawing patterns, full drawing-methods reference, default font usage,@tooleditor preview, line-width gotchas.
Godot 4.7+:
DrawableTexture2D— a runtime-drawable texture type — shipped experimental in 4.7 and is not yet recommended for production.
MeshInstance2D replaces Sprite2D when large transparent areas waste GPU fill rate. The GPU draws the entire texture quad including fully transparent pixels — a mesh eliminates those.
Sprite2DBest candidates:
Many drawing methods support an antialiased parameter:
draw_line(Vector2.ZERO, Vector2(100, 50), Color.WHITE, 2.0, true) # antialiased = true
// Equivalent in a CanvasItem subclass (e.g., a custom Control or Node2D):
public override void _Draw()
{
DrawLine(new Vector2(0, 0), new Vector2(100, 50), Colors.White, width: 2.0f, antialiased: true);
}
Line2D has an Antialiased property in the inspector — set it via line2D.Antialiased = true in C# or as an Inspector toggle in the editor. This works by generating additional geometry — no MSAA needed.
⚠️ Changed in Godot 4.7:
CanvasItemantialiased line drawing no longer adds the antialiasing feather. The feather madedraw_line()-style lines appear thicker than intended, so antialiased lines render thinner after upgrading — projects that relied on the old look must draw a thickerwidth. See the 4.7 migration guide.
Available in Forward+ and Mobile renderers only (NOT Compatibility).
Project Settings → Rendering → Anti Aliasing → Quality → MSAA 2D
Levels: 2x, 4x, 8x.
| MSAA affects | MSAA does NOT affect |
|---|---|
| Geometry edges (lines, polygons) | Aliasing within nearest-neighbor textures |
| Sprite edges touching texture edges | Custom 2D shader output |
| Font rendering | |
| Specular aliasing with Light2D |
For pixel art: Do NOT enable MSAA 2D — it blurs intentionally sharp edges. Use the per-node
antialiasedparameter selectively.

## 1. Canvas Layers and Draw Order
### Draw Order Rules
Within a single canvas layer, nodes draw in **scene tree order** — nodes listed lower in the Scene panel draw **on top**. Use `z_index` to override without rearranging the tree.
```gdscript
# Draw this node above siblings (default z_index is 0)
z_index = 10
# Make z_index relative to parent (default: false = global)
z_as_relative = true
```
### CanvasLayer
`CanvasLayer` creates a separate rendering layer with its own transform, independent of the camera. Higher `layer` values draw on top.
| Layer | Typical Use |
|-------|-------------|
| -1 | Parallax backgrounds |
| 0 | Default game layer (all Node2D without CanvasLayer) |
| 1 | HUD / UI overlay |
| 2 | Pause menu, screen transitions |
```

> **Note:** CanvasLayers are NOT required to control draw order. For objects within the same game world, use `z_index` or scene tree ordering. CanvasLayers are for elements that should be independent of the camera (HUD, parallax, transitions).
### Canvas Transform
`Camera2D` works by modifying the viewport's `canvas_transform`. For manual control:
```gdscript
# Scroll the canvas directly (equivalent to camera movement)
get_viewport().canvas_transform = Transform2D(0, Vector2(-200, 0))
```
### Coordinate Conversion
```gdscript
# Local to canvas (world) coordinates
var world_pos: Vector2 = get_global_transform() * local_pos
var local_pos: Vector2 = get_global_transform().affine_inverse() * world_pos
# Local to screen coordinates (accounts for camera, stretch, window)
var screen_pos: Vector2 = get_viewport().get_screen_transform() * get_global_transform_with_canvas() * local_pos
```
```csharp
// Local to canvas (world) coordinates
Vector2 worldPos = GetGlobalTransform() * localPos;
Vector2 localFromWorld = GetGlobalTransform().AffineInverse() * worldPos;
// Local to screen coordinates
Vector2 screenPos = GetViewport().GetScreenTransform() * GetGlobalTransformWithCanvas() * localPos;
```

## 2. TileMap System
`TileMapLayer` (Godot 4.5+) is the modern API — one tilemap = one node = one layer. Drive painting with a `TileSet` resource (atlas + properties + physics + custom data). Use **terrain autotiling** for biome-aware tile selection, **scene collection tiles** for placing scene instances on tiles.
> See [references/tilemap.md](references/tilemap.md) for full TileSet setup, atlas / physics / terrain configuration, custom data on tiles, scene collection tiles, and the 4.5+ tile-collision-bump auto-merge fix.
---
## 3. Parallax Scrolling
`Parallax2D` (Godot 4.4+) replaces the older `ParallaxBackground`/`ParallaxLayer` pair. Set `scroll_scale` per layer (0 = static, 1 = follows camera 1:1, fractional values for depth). Add `repeat_size` for infinite tiling.
> See [references/parallax.md](references/parallax.md) for `Parallax2D` setup, side-scroller layer example, infinite repeat, split-screen parallax, common mistakes.
---
## 4. 2D Lights and Shadows
`PointLight2D` and `DirectionalLight2D` cast lighting onto sprites — pair with a normal map for 3D-style shading or use additive-blend illumination on flat sprites. Cast shadows with `LightOccluder2D`.
> See [references/lights-and-shadows.md](references/lights-and-shadows.md) for node overview, PointLight2D properties, shadow settings, cull masks, occluders, 2D normal maps, pixel-art lighting tips, and additive-sprite fake-light tricks.
---
## 5. 2D Particle Systems
`GPUParticles2D` for high counts (≥ 50 particles, GPU-driven), `CPUParticles2D` for low counts or platforms without GPU support. Both share the same `ParticleProcessMaterial` interface; differences are mainly performance.
> See [references/2d-particles.md](references/2d-particles.md) for the GPU-vs-CPU distinguishing choices, basic setup, ParticleProcessMaterial 2D properties, emission from textures, flipbook, visibility rect, common 2D recipes.
---
## 6. Custom Drawing
Override `_draw()` on any `CanvasItem` to draw lines, polygons, text, or arbitrary shapes. Call `queue_redraw()` to trigger a re-render (never call `_draw()` directly).
> See [references/custom-drawing.md](references/custom-drawing.md) for the `_draw()` method, redrawing patterns, full drawing-methods reference, default font usage, `@tool` editor preview, line-width gotchas.
> **Godot 4.7+:** `DrawableTexture2D` — a runtime-drawable texture type — shipped experimental in 4.7 and is not yet recommended for production.
---
## 7. 2D Meshes
### When to Use
`MeshInstance2D` replaces `Sprite2D` when large transparent areas waste GPU fill rate. The GPU draws the entire texture quad including fully transparent pixels — a mesh eliminates those.
### Converting Sprite2D to MeshInstance2D
1. Select the `Sprite2D`
2. Menu: **Sprite2D → Convert to MeshInstance2D**
3. Adjust growth and simplification parameters
4. Click "Convert 2D Mesh"
Best candidates:
- Screen-sized images with transparency
- Parallax layers with irregular shapes
- Layered images with large transparent borders
- Mobile/low-end GPU targets
---
## 8. 2D Antialiasing
### Per-Node Antialiasing (Recommended)
Many drawing methods support an `antialiased` parameter:
```gdscript
draw_line(Vector2.ZERO, Vector2(100, 50), Color.WHITE, 2.0, true) # antialiased = true
```
```csharp
// Equivalent in a CanvasItem subclass (e.g., a custom Control or Node2D):
public override void _Draw()
{
DrawLine(new Vector2(0, 0), new Vector2(100, 50), Colors.White, width: 2.0f, antialiased: true);
}
```
`Line2D` has an `Antialiased` property in the inspector — set it via `line2D.Antialiased = true` in C# or as an Inspector toggle in the editor. This works by generating additional geometry — no MSAA needed.
> ⚠️ **Changed in Godot 4.7:** `CanvasItem` antialiased line drawing no longer adds the antialiasing feather. The feather made `draw_line()`-style lines appear thicker than intended, so antialiased lines render thinner after upgrading — projects that relied on the old look must draw a thicker `width`. See the [4.7 migration guide](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/migrating/upgrading_to_godot_4.7.html).
### MSAA 2D
Available in Forward+ and Mobile renderers only (NOT Compatibility).
**Project Settings → Rendering → Anti Aliasing → Quality → MSAA 2D**
Levels: 2x, 4x, 8x.
| MSAA affects | MSAA does NOT affect |
|-------------|---------------------|
| Geometry edges (lines, polygons) | Aliasing within nearest-neighbor textures |
| Sprite edges touching texture edges | Custom 2D shader output |
| | Font rendering |
| | Specular aliasing with Light2D |
> **For pixel art:** Do NOT enable MSAA 2D — it blurs intentionally sharp edges. Use the per-node `antialiased` parameter selectively.
---
## 9. 2D Snapping and Pixel-Perfect
### Editor Snapping
Three-dot menu in the 2D toolbar:
- **Grid Step** — snap to grid (configure Grid Offset and Step)
- **Rotation Step** — snap rotation to degrees
- **Smart Snap** — snap to parent, node anchors, sides, centers, guides
### Runtime Pixel Snap
For pixel-art games, enable pixel snapping to prevent subpixel jitter:
- **Node2D:** Project Settings → Rendering → 2D → Snapping → `Snap 2D Transforms to Pixel`
- **Vertices:** Project Settings → Rendering → 2D → Snapping → `Snap 2D Vertices to Pixel`
- **Controls:** Project Settings → GUI → General → `Snap Controls to Pixels`
---
## 10. Implementation Checklist
- [ ] Background is a Sprite2D or ColorRect (not the default clear color) so it receives 2D lighting
- [ ] TileSet is saved as an external `.tres` resource for reuse across levels
- [ ] TileSet has `Use Texture Padding` enabled to prevent texture bleeding
- [ ] Parallax2D textures have top-left at (0,0), not centered
- [ ] `repeat_size` matches actual texture dimensions
- [ ] `repeat_times` is increased if the camera can zoom out
- [ ] LightOccluder2D nodes are added to shadow-casting objects when shadows are enabled
- [ ] Light and occluder cull masks are configured to avoid unnecessary light calculations
- [ ] GPUParticles2D has a valid Visibility Rect (auto-generate via Particles menu)
- [ ] `queue_redraw()` is called when custom drawing state changes
- [ ] Collision shapes on tiles use the Physics Layer system, not manual CollisionShape2D nodes
- [ ] Large transparent sprites are converted to MeshInstance2D on mobile/low-end targets
