Can someone give me a pointer on how plugins or addons as gdscript packages generally work?
I also stumbled upon this repo: https://github.com/oniksan/godobuf, and godobuf is a plugin that provide a protobuf serialization. (and sadly it seems like it doesn't support godot 4 yet) Does that mean approaching this problem by writing a plugin is the right way?

Take the time to put large data in sheets. You will thank yourself later..
There are existing Godot bindings for Protobuf, which are pretty decent for this usecase too: https://github.com/oniksan/godobuf

Are there plans to support api from mapbox and the likes?
If you want vector tiles, it'll be much harder. There's a GDScript protobuf parser addon, but you'll need to write your own code to convert that into a node tree, apply a map style, etc. I don't know of any existing addon that does this.

I wrote a sophisticated loader (avaiable in AssetLib) which validates the data, so I don't have to worry about typos or something missing. The cfg file provides me with readable, convenient to edit overview, which is also easy to search .
What are some alternatives?
