What is a .TRES file?
A .TRES file is a kind of file used by people who make games with a program called Godot Engine. Godot Engine is a special tool that lets people create their own video games that can be simple or very detailed, for computers or mobile phones. The .TRES file has important information written in a way that is easy to read and understand (plain text). This information helps the game do different things like making objects move as if they are real (physics), creating menus or buttons players can click on, and showing characters or objects (sprites).
To look at or change a .TRES file, you use a part of Godot Engine called the Inspector. This is like a special editor that helps you see and edit the contents of the file.
If you want to open a .TRES file, you need to use Godot Engine or a special version of it for Android phones. There's also something called Godot Editor 4, which is another tool you can use.
One cool thing about .TRES files being in plain text is that it makes it easier for game developers to keep track of changes they make to their game's resources. When the game is all finished and ready to share with others, Godot Engine changes the .TRES files into a different kind of file called RES. These RES files are not in plain text but in a binary format, which means they take up less space and can make the game run faster and more smoothly.
