Log.gd, a Godot pretty printer

Available on the Godot Asset
Library and Github.

I gave a Lightning talk about this addon at Godot Con Boston!
Here are the
slides.
Video link to come soon!

Log.gd provides a drop-in replacement for GDScript's print(...) function.

It colors the output based on the value passed in, and adds a prefix based on
the call-site's file and line number.

This makes Godot's Output buffer much more readable! And now, I can't live without it :eyeroll:

TLDR

• Log.pr(...) - print(...) replacement (also adds spaces between args)
• Log.prn(...) - the same, but include newlines + tabs when printing arrays/dictionaries
