Gdscript Suggested File Format

The suggested order of file contents for GDScript files.

Rules

1. Properties and signals come first, followed by methods.
2. Public comes before private.
3. Virtual callbacks come before the class’s interface.
4. The object’s construction and initialization functions, _init and _ready, come before functions that modify the object at runtime.
