TrenchBroom Resources

TrenchBroom has the strongest support from FuncGodot, and as such is the recommended map editor for use with the plugin. FuncGodot has optional support for TrenchBroom Layers and Groups, and TrenchBroom supports multiple bit flag key value pairs. To aid with TrenchBroom support, FuncGodot offers two different resources.
