Godot 4 · GDScript · Groups & clans

create_group

Creates a group; the caller becomes its leader.

Asynchronous (result via signal)

Signature

create_group(group_name: String, opts: Dictionary = {}) -> void

What it does

POSTs /groups/create. On success group = {id, name, tag, description, join_policy, max_members, member_count, created_at, my_role}; {} on failure. error_code may be name_taken / tag_taken / already_in_group / forbidden.

Parameters

Name	Type	Default	Description
group_name	String	required	Group name (sanitized to max 50 chars).
opts	Dictionary	{}	Optional: tag (<=8), description (<=500), join_policy (open\|request\|invite_only\|closed, default "request"), max_members (1-1000).

How to call it

Connect group_created first, then call create_group(). Groups are gated by your plan (AllowGroups) AND game.groups_enabled; if disabled, error_code is "forbidden".

Result signal: group_created(success: bool, group: Dictionary, error_code: String)

Example

Gamdato.group_created.connect(_on_group_created)
Gamdato.create_group("Dragons", {"tag": "DRG", "join_policy": "request"})

func _on_group_created(ok: bool, group: Dictionary, error_code: String) -> void:
    if ok: print("Created %s" % group.name)
    else: print("Failed: %s" % error_code)   # e.g. name_taken, already_in_group

Use cases

Let a player start a clan.
Create a guild with an approval (request) join policy.
