“bag” seems to be something like Doras backpack.
It is a container which contains preloaded scripts which’s reference is passed on.

See here:

github.com

w84death/Tanks-of-Freedom/blob/7f8582de2d6f89d68181eebc9de4a59d7f1b7fac/scripts/services/dependency_container.gd

var root

var controllers = preload("res://scripts/controllers/controllers.gd").new()

var language = preload("res://scripts/language.gd").new()
var map_list = preload("res://scripts/maps/map_list.gd").new()
var campaign = preload("res://maps/campaign.gd").new()
var abstract_map = preload('res://scripts/abstract_map.gd').new()
var match_state = preload("res://scripts/match_state.gd").new()
var demo_mode = preload("res://scripts/demo_mode.gd").new()
var camera = preload("res://scripts/camera.gd").new()
var hud_dead_zone = preload("res://scripts/services/hud_dead_zone.gd").new()
var workshop_dead_zone = preload("res://scripts/services/workshop_dead_zone.gd").new()
var menu_back = preload("res://scripts/menu_back.gd").new()

var action_map = preload('res://scripts/action_map.gd').new()
var battle_controller = preload('res://scripts/battle_controller.gd').new()
var movement_controller = preload('res://scripts/movement_controller.gd').new()
var ap_gain = preload("res://gui/hud/ap_gain.gd").new()
var map_tiles = preload("res://scripts/maps/map_tiles.gd").new()

You could also call it shared global “variables”.

Do a search for “bag in:file” (-> current repository) for more occurances of “bag”.

And as for the root var?
