Android Admob Plugin

Enables AdMob functionality on Godot apps that are exported to the Android platform and allows
displaying of Admob ads.

For iOS version, visit https://github.com/cengiz-pz/godot-ios-admob-plugin .

This branch contains the latest version of the plugin, which contains breaking changes to the plugin
interface. The original version of the plugin can be found on the
Release 1.0 branch.

Prerequisites

Follow instructions on the following page to create a custom Android gradle build

• Create custom Android gradle build

Create an AdMob account at the following link:

• Google AdMob
• create an app in AdMob console
• create ad(s) for your app via the AdMob console
• if needed, create consent form(s) for your app via the AdMob console

Installation

Before installing this plugin, make sure to uninstall any previous versions of the same plugin.

If installing both Android and iOS versions of the plugin in the same project, then make sure that both versions use the same addon interface version.

There are 2 ways to install the Admob plugin into your project:

• Through the Godot Editor's AssetLib
• Manually by downloading archives from Github

Installing via AssetLib

Steps:

• search for and select the Admob plugin in Godot Editor
• click Download button
• on the installation dialog...
  • keep Change Install Folder setting pointing to your project's root directory
  • keep Ignore asset root checkbox checked
  • click Install button
• enable the plugin via the Plugins tab of Project->Project Settings... menu, in the Godot Editor

Installing both Android and iOS versions of the plugin in the same project

When installing via AssetLib, the installer may display a warning that states "[x number of] files conflict with your project and won't be installed." You can ignore this warning since both versions use the same addon code.

Installing manually

Steps:

• download release archive from Github
• unzip the release archive
• copy to your Godot project's root directory
• enable the plugin via the Plugins tab of Project->Project Settings... menu, in the Godot Editor

Usage

• Add Admob node to your main scene and populate the ID fields of the node
  • Debug IDs will only be used when your Godot app is run in debug mode
  • Real IDs will only be used when the is_real field of the node is set to true

Signals

• register listeners for one or more of the following signals of the Admob node:
  • initialization_completed(status_data: InitializationStatus)

  • interstitial_ad_clicked(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_showed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_failed_to_show_full_screen_content(ad_id: String, error_data: AdError)

  • rewarded_ad_impression(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_clicked(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_showed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_failed_to_show_full_screen_content(ad_id: String, error_data: AdError)
  • rewarded_ad_dismissed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_user_earned_reward(ad_id: String, reward_data: RewardItem)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_impression(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_clicked(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_showed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_failed_to_show_full_screen_content(ad_id: String, error_data: AdError)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_dismissed_full_screen_content(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_user_earned_reward(ad_id: String, reward_data: RewardItem)
  • consent_form_loaded
  • consent_form_dismissed(error_data: FormError)
  • consent_form_failed_to_load(error_data: FormError)
  • consent_info_updated
  • consent_info_update_failed(error_data: FormError)

Loading and displaying ads

• initialize the plugin
  • call the initialize() method of the Admob node
  • wait for the initialization_completed signal
• use one or more of the following load_*() methods to load ads from the Admob node:
  • load_banner_ad(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)
  • load_interstitia_adl(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)
  • load_rewarded_ad(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)
  • load_rewarded_interstitial_ad(ad_request: LoadAdRequest)
• the Admob node will emit the following signals once ads have been loaded or failed to load:
  • banner_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • banner_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • interstitial_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • interstitial_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • rewarded_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_loaded(ad_id: String)
  • rewarded_interstitial_ad_failed_to_load(ad_id: String, error_data: LoadAdError)
• once ads have been loaded, call corresponding show_*() method from the Admob node with the ad_id received:
  • show_banner_ad(ad_id: String)
  • show_interstitial_ad(ad_id: String)
  • show_rewarded_ad(ad_id: String)
  • show_rewarded_interstitial_ad(ad_id: String)

Banner Size

• The following methods return the size of a Banner ad:
  • get_banner_dimension()
  • get_banner_dimension_in_pixels()
• These methods are not supported for FLUID sized ads. For banner ads of size FLUID, the get_banner_dimension() method will return (-3, -4) and the get_banner_dimension_in_pixels() method will return (-1, -1).

User Consent

• Methods:
  • get_consent_status() - Returns a consent status value defined in ConsentInformation.gd
  • update_consent_info(params: ConsentRequestParameters) - To be called if get_consent_status() returns status UNKNOWN (0).
  • reset_consent_info() - To be used only when testing and debugging your application.
  • is_consent_form_available()
  • load_consent_form() - To be called if get_consent_status() returns status REQUIRED (2) and is_consent_form_available() returns false.
  • show_consent_form() - To be called after consent_form_loaded signal has been emitted or is_consent_form_available() returns true.

Android Export

Android export requires several configuration settings.

File-based Export Configuration

In order to enable file-based export configuration, an export.cfg file should be placed in the addons/AdmobPlugin directory with the following content:

[General]
is_real = false

[Debug]
app_id = "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544~3347511713"

[Release]
app_id = "ca-app-pub-3940256099942544~3347511713"

The is_real and app_id configuration items are mandatory and if not found in the export.cfg file, then the plugin will fall back to node-based configuration.

Node-based Export Configuration

If export.cfg file is not found or file-based configuration fails, then the plugin will attempt to load node-based configuration.

During Android export, the plugin searches for an Admob node in the scene that is open in the Godot Editor. If not found, then the plugin searches for an Admob node in the project's main scene. Therefore;

• Make sure that the scene that contains the Admob node is selected in the Godot Editor when building and exporting for Android, or
• Make sure that your Godot project's main scene contains an Admob node

Troubleshooting

Missing APP ID

If your game crashes due to missing APP ID, then make sure that you enter your Admob APP ID in the Admob node and pay attention to the Android Export section.

ADB logcat

adb logcat is one of the best tools for troubleshooting unexpected behavior

• use $> adb logcat | grep 'godot' on Linux
  • adb logcat *:W to see warnings and errors
  • adb logcat *:E to see only errors
  • adb logcat | grep 'godot|somethingElse' to filter using more than one string at the same time
• use #> adb.exe logcat | select-string "godot" on powershell (Windows)
