Abstract base class for the game's main loop.
</brief_description>
<description>
[MainLoop] is the abstract base class for a Godot project's game loop. It is inherited by [SceneTree], which is the default game loop implementation used in Godot projects, though it is also possible to write and use one's own [MainLoop] subclass instead of the scene tree.
Upon the application start, a [MainLoop] implementation must be provided to the OS; otherwise, the application will exit. This happens automatically (and a [SceneTree] is created) unless a main [Script] is provided from the command line (with e.g. [code]godot -s my_loop.gd[/code], which should then be a [MainLoop] implementation.
Here is an example script implementing a simple [MainLoop]:
[codeblock]
extends MainLoop
var time_elapsed = 0
var keys_typed = []
var quit = false
func _initialize():
print("Initialized:")
print(" Starting time: %s" % str(time_elapsed))
func _idle(delta):
time_elapsed += delta
# Return true to end the main loop
return quit
func _input_event(event):
# Record keys
if event is InputEventKey and event.pressed and !event.echo:
keys_typed.append(OS.get_scancode_string(event.scancode))
# Quit on Escape press
if event.scancode == KEY_ESCAPE:
quit = true
# Quit on any mouse click
if event is InputEventMouseButton:
quit = true
func _finalize():
print("Finalized:")
print(" End time: %s" % str(time_elapsed))
print(" Keys typed: %s" % var2str(keys_typed))
[/codeblock]

<description>
Called when files are dragged from the OS file manager and dropped in the game window. The arguments are a list of file paths and the identifier of the screen where the drag originated.

<description>
Called each idle frame with the time since the last idle frame as argument (in seconds). Equivalent to [method Node._process].
If implemented, the method must return a boolean value. [code]true[/code] ends the main loop, while [code]false[/code] lets it proceed to the next frame.

<method name="_initialize" qualifiers="virtual">
<return type="void">

<description>
Called once during initialization.

<argument index="0" name="event" type="InputEvent">

<description>
Called whenever an [InputEvent] is received by the main loop.

<method name="_input_text" qualifiers="virtual">
<return type="void">
</return>
<argument index="0" name="text" type="String">
</argument>
<description>
Deprecated callback, does not do anything. Use [method _input_event] to parse text input. Will be removed in Godot 4.0.

<method name="_iteration" qualifiers="virtual">
<return type="bool">
</return>
<argument index="0" name="delta" type="float">

<description>
Called each physics frame with the time since the last physics frame as argument (in seconds). Equivalent to [method Node._physics_process].
If implemented, the method must return a boolean value. [code]true[/code] ends the main loop, while [code]false[/code] lets it proceed to the next frame.
