EnumHash for growing Enums

[go-stuff]

Hello,

I am new to Godot, I have been using it for a few weeks and really enjoying it. I want to discuss functionality of the enum. During my development process I am constantly adding to my enums, a side effect of adding not to the bottom of an enum but in the middle to keep some kind of order can break anywhere that I have that enum value chosen in nodes in the inspector.

I am using some automations to add to an enum when I import new items in the editor, to do this I am setting each value in the enum equal to a string.hash() of the enum key. I know this introduces the same issue when changing an enum key, but thought I would ask if others have ran into the issue I am facing. Maybe there is a cleaner way of solving my problem or maybe some kind of enum/hash can be a real thing?

Thanks for your time
