godot-nodes-scenes
Structure a Godot 4.7 project with the scene tree and node composition: build reusable scenes, instance PackedScenes at runtime, navigate the tree safely, and register autoload singletons. Use when designing .tscn scenes, deciding how to split nodes, spawning instances with instantiate(), wiring autoloads, or fixing "node not found"/freed-node errors in a Godot project.

# Godot Nodes & Scenes (4.x)
Compose games from nodes and scenes, instance them at runtime, and access the tree
without crashing on freed or missing nodes. Targets **Godot 4.7**.
## When to use
- Use when structuring `.tscn` scenes, choosing how to break a feature into nodes,
instancing a `PackedScene` (bullets, enemies, UI), or setting up autoload singletons.
- Use when debugging `get_node()` / `$Path` returning `null`, or "Attempt to call on a
previously freed instance".
**When _not_ to use:** GDScript language/syntax → `godot-gdscript`; signal-based
decoupling → `godot-signals-groups`; physics bodies/collisions → `godot-physics`.
