Godot Drag & Drop Grid Tutorial: Beyond Basic UI (Inventory & Puzzle Ready!)
Learn how to build a fully functional drag-and-drop grid system in Godot that actually connects to game logic! Most tutorials only show you how to move textures between controls. This video takes it further by:
✅ Creating reusable grid cells using Buttons (with hover/focus styles)
✅ Implementing drag previews and drop validation
✅ Connecting to external systems (inventories, puzzles) with signals
✅ Swapping data between cells cleanly with no spaghetti code
