In Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), inheritance is a powerful tool. Put briefly, you can define a class that inherits from another class. An object created using the first class will contain all of the methods and member variables of the master class as well as its own.
Godot is strongly object-oriented, and this gives you the opportunity to use inheritance not just with objects (scripts) but also with scenes, allowing you a great deal of flexibility when designing your game's architecture. It also removes the need to duplicate code—if two objects need to share a set of methods and variables, for example, you can create a common script and let both objects inherit from it. If you make a change to that code, it will apply to both objects.
