# Usage with GDScript

There are two ways to use the UUID generator, in eidtor or at runtime. *Make sure to have followed the installation steps first!*

## In Editor

1. Create new UUIDManager node
2. That's it! The UUIID is generated automatically and is removed automatically when the node is removed.


## At Runtime

1. Add a `UUIDManager` variable in the script you want to store the UUID node in
```gdscript
extends Node2D

## Variables
var uuidNode : UUIDManager
```

2. Set the variable by calling the `create_new_uuid()` script at `_ready()`. The function takes in the parent to add the node to as a child.
```gdscript
extends Node2D

## Variables
var uuidNode : UUIDManager

func _ready():
  uuidNode = MinosUUIDGenerator.create_new_uuid(self)
```

## Set-Up Debugging Options

The `MinosUUIDGenerator` script comes with 4 variables for debugging. By default they're set to true.

```gdscript
static var printNewUUID : bool = true
static var printSuccessfulRemoval : bool = true
static var printFailedRemoval : bool = true
static var printNewUUIDNode : bool = true
```

- `printNewUUID` will print a message when a new UUID is made and it's UUID.
- `printSuccessfulRemoval` will print a message when a UUID is removed as well as the old UUID.
- `printFailedRemoval` will print a message when a UUID was attempted to be removed but couldn't be found in the array.
- `printNewUUIDNode` will print a message when a new `UUIDManager` node is made.
