Converting to Godot 4

[BalsamicVinegar1]

Heyo, I could just be unaware of something within Godot, but I've searched all over and can't figure out what line 177 of searcher.gd "Global.galaxy_scale" is supposed to be.

I'm guessing it's some left over variable unique to your project, if not can you please tell me what it's supposed to be?
If I can fix this I may be able to return all the files updated to work in Godot 4.x and while I'm at it how were the scripts arranged in the scene tree in your project?

Ah yes, I believe that this was a leftover from the test project where this repo most likely originated. Having a look at the arguments of the function _dist_of_nearest_point_along_ray_segment, I am guessing that galaxy_scale contained the diameter(or radius) of a generated point field.

Regarding the arrangement of scripts in the scene tree. I suspect this script was not used on Nodes in the SceneTree.
The classes here were not meant to operate directly on Nodes within in the SceneTree, instead the Octree would be programmatically populated with data(or references) such that they could be placed as Nodes in the SceneTree on demand.

However It has been such a long time since I worked on this that my assumptions here could be completely wrong.

I will have a look at my old project files(if i can find them) and get a version working in the current releases of Godot, otherwise if you manage to get this working in recent versions of Godot, feel free to submit a PR.
