## xogot_connect

Debug Godot games on iPhone/iPad via USB:

```gdscript
# In your Godot project, add xogot_connect addon
# Then in _ready():
extends Node

func _ready():
    if OS.has_feature("ios"):
        XogotConnect.start_debug_server()
```

### Setup

1. Install Xogot from App Store
2. Clone xogot_connect addon: `git clone https://github.com/xibbon/xogot_connect`
3. Copy `addons/xogot_connect` to your project
4. Enable in Project Settings → Plugins
5. Connect iPhone via USB
6. Run `xogot-connect` CLI on Mac

---

## GDScript Examples

### 2D Player Movement

```gdscript
extends CharacterBody2D

@export var speed: float = 200.0

func _physics_process(delta):
    var velocity = Vector2.ZERO
    
    # Touch input for mobile
    if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_right"):
        velocity.x += 1
    if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left"):
        velocity.x -= 1
    if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_down"):
        velocity.y += 1
    if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_up"):
        velocity.y -= 1
    
    velocity = velocity.normalized() * speed
    move_and_slide()
```

### 3D Scene with Lighting

```gdscript
extends Node3D

func _ready():
    # Create directional light
    var light = DirectionalLight3D.new()
    light.light_energy = 1.0
    light.shadow_enabled = true
    add_child(light)
    
    # Create mesh
    var mesh_instance = MeshInstance3D.new()
    mesh_instance.mesh = BoxMesh.new()
    add_child(mesh_instance)
```

### Touch Input

```gdscript
extends Control

func _input(event):
    if event is InputEventScreenTouch:
        if event.pressed:
            print("Touch at: ", event.position)
    elif event is InputEventScreenDrag:
        print("Drag to: ", event.position)
```

## SwiftGodot Integration

For Swift extensions (advanced):

```swift
import SwiftGodot

@Godot
class MySwiftNode: Node {
    @Export var health: Int = 100
    
    override func _ready() {
        GD.print("Swift node ready!")
    }
    
    @Callable
    func takeDamage(amount: Int) {
        health -= amount
        if health <= 0 {
            queueFree()
        }
    }
}
```

## GF(3) Integration

Xogot game development triadic workflow:

```
MINUS (-1): Design Phase
  - Scene composition
  - Asset import
  - Level layout

ERGODIC (0): Code Phase  
  - GDScript logic
  - State machines
  - Input handling

PLUS (+1): Deploy Phase
  - Build to device
  - Debug via xogot_connect
  - App Store submission
```

### Balanced Pipeline

```clojure
;; catp verification
[:import-assets :write-scripts :build-ios]  ; -1 + 0 + 1 = 0 ✓
[:design-scene :test-local :deploy-device]  ; -1 + 0 + 1 = 0 ✓
```

## Commands

```bash
# Clone xogot_connect
git clone https://github.com/xibbon/xogot_connect

# Check Xogot issues
gh issue list -R xibbon/XogotIssues

# SwiftGodot binary (for extensions)
gh release list -R xibbon/SwiftGodotXogotBinary
```
