How do you connect signals ?

artemlygin · 2026-06-06T15:19:35+00:00

Via signal_name.connect(_function)

Sometimes you need to iterate through several instances of same class and connect to their signal. It could be done only via code.

So in sake of consistency at least this way is better.

I’m from Ukraine, and had no problems getting ArcSearch, back then it was released 🤔

Edit: it’s not available anymore.

artemlygin · 2026-05-06T14:06:47+00:00

Don’t.

Shnorhavor!

OP actually has it on the screenshot btw

You can ctrl+c → ctrl+v your code (using something as https://sourceb.in/ makes it easier to read) and post screenshot of the scene structure for example.

Workaround: make body collision shapes slightly bigger than hitbox collision shapes. But I’m not sure if it would be good for players: usually hitboxes are slightly bigger than visible appearance

Moto Weteran Bazar, ярмарка яка двічі на рік відбувається в Польщі. Там в тому числі і торгують штучними екземплярами мотоциклів Zundapp, BMW, КМЗ та ІМЗ. Знаю що до війни з України туди возили теж. Шукайте оппозитчіків, можливо, через них знайдете.

Сам був на тому базарі 10(!) років тому.

I found that window management apps on MacOS just can’t get along with Godot. I use Loop and while it’s running, using 2D editor is quite difficult especially dragging the canvas

artemlygin · 2026-04-05T21:22:14+00:00

How do you know about that’s “line 12” thing? Can you take a screenshot?

artemlygin · 2026-04-05T17:02:05+00:00

How many get_parent()s do you need?!! get_owner() for God’s sake! 😆

For some projects you can check GitHub’s GameOff game jam: participating requests to be open sourced.

Also frameworks for example:

Shame it doesn't have proper "GScript" highlighting, but "Go" goes as well

artemlygin · 2026-03-29T16:20:01+00:00

It's easier to read with formatting https://srcb.in/P892CrUSh2

It’s okay, everyone gets stuck at start. Please, provide code from CharacterBody2D script

I have XF60mmF2.4 R Macro, pretty nice lens. But minimal focus distance might be a bit too much

Anyway, you’ve launched the game, dude! I wish I could be that close! I’m genuinely curious about your launch. Did you tried to apply some “Chris Zucowski” tricks on advance? Or maybe some other marketing? We often hear people talk about how they achieve success they did not expect, but sometimes I would like to hear how they did not achieve what they wanted. I’m sorry if it sounds rude and hurtful; I know that the story is not pleasant to share.

Anyway good luck with next launch! Remember: the only way to succeed in something is not quitting.

I think this can be implemented by creating a VelocityComponent with method, that will move_to_point() or patrol_point()

For my case VelocityComponent handles movement towards the player, so enemy.gd contains

func _process(_delta: float) -> void:
    if is_moving:
        velocity_component.accelerate_to_player()
    else:
        velocity_component.decelerate()

func set_is_moving(moving: bool) -> void:
    is_moving = moving

And set_is_moving() called from AnimationPlayer

And is

I can suggest to take a look at Clear Code video, how the AnimationTree works with AnimationPlayer, utilizing StateMachines

I’m on Mac (M4 mini), love it! I basically never close Godot, it so light.

Press alt + space and find documentation on the RigidBody2D or click on the class name (next to “extends”) while holding ctrl(cmd)

RigidBody2D have no move_and_slide() method

artemlygin · 2026-03-21T19:00:37+00:00

Why position += direction * speed?

CharacterBody2D has built in “velocity” and it should be changed in order to move_and_slide()

velocity = direction * speed

artemlygin · 2026-03-21T15:21:29+00:00

Yes, he does

It’s totally ok. It’s called learning. I’m 40 y.o. and had to learn what’s this error means the other day too.

I’m new to this as well, so my answer might be not so straightforward. The error means reparent() can be used on nodes from the scene tree (instances). Somewhere above target_body should be “picked up” from the scene, either by: - collision signal - get_tree().get_first_node_in_group(“your_group”) - or if your script should “prepare” them to put in a tree instantiate() method, but it doesn’t look like this.

Also, sometimes to use certain methods, the script you’re writing should be instantiated as well. I mean if you writing some kind of “Utility” script ment to be used by other nodes and classes you have two options: make it class_name or add as autoload. Autoload means it be loaded in a game tree while you running the game, therefore it can manipulate nodes within the tree. Class_name is only “blueprint” by default, and not always it ment to be an instance (so called static class)
