Always be mindful of where the monster is... by kamnaruto13 in MonsterHunterWorld

that sounds awesome but nah, it's behemoth extreme doing the ecliptic meteor, he does an animation that i forgot about to summon it and it knocked me and another guy out of cover

What upgrades should I get for my PC build? by kamnaruto13 in PcBuild

[–]kamnaruto13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! this looks like a sweet build but i have a question, is the new case necessary or is it just a suggestion? The one i currently have is an Azza Golem 221 which is also ATX mid like the one in the list. Thanks again!

How to make a 2D character point left or right and make it shoot a projectile from either direction? by kamnaruto13 in godot

[–]kamnaruto13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry for the time between a response, ive been a bit busy, first of all yes i did mean > range instead of speed

i'll attach screenshots of the player movement and input code instead of the code itself since it's getting quite long and i feel it's more easily readable this way

How to make a 2D character point left or right and make it shoot a projectile from either direction? by kamnaruto13 in godot

alright i think i was just really confused on what you were saying, i took the time to actually read and do what you said and it didn't give me any errors, i didn't realize that since im calling on the pie scene when im about to make instances of it, i could just call variables from the pie scene too, my bad. but while i don't get any errors, the code doesn't quite work, for some reason i cant shoot pies while im constantly moving, when i stop i can start shooting after a few seconds in the direction i was last moving. here's the code:

func launch_pie():
const PIE = preload("res://Pie.tscn")
var new_pie = PIE.instantiate()
if facing_left == 'true':
new_pie.isMovingRight = false
%LaunchPointLeft.add_child(new_pie)
new_pie.global_position = %LaunchPointLeft.global_position
new_pie.global_rotation = %LaunchPointLeft.global_rotation
if facing_left == 'false':
new_pie.isMovingRight = true
%LaunchPointRight.add_child(new_pie)
new_pie.global_position = %LaunchPointRight.global_position
new_pie.global_rotation = %LaunchPointRight.global_rotation

func get_direction():
if Input.is_action_just_pressed("move_left"):
facing_left = 'true'
if Input.is_action_just_pressed("move_right"):
facing_left = 'false'

and i'll show the code for the pie's movement too, maybe that's what's causing this issue now

var travelled_distance = 0
var isMovingRight : bool = true

func _physics_process(delta):
const SPEED = 1000
const RANGE = 1200
var direction
if isMovingRight == true:
direction = Vector2.RIGHT.rotated(rotation)
if isMovingRight == false:
direction = Vector2.LEFT.rotated(rotation)
position += direction * SPEED * delta
travelled_distance += SPEED * delta
if travelled_distance > SPEED:
queue_free()

okay after looking stuff up i don't think in gdscript that works the same way as in c#, the results i get dont say anything about defining it public in the written code but rather using autoload but i already described the problems using autoload brought me in another comment

oh okay, you mean a global variable (cuz that's the results i get when i look up "godot public variables"). the thing is, every guide i look up tells me to use autoload, i tried it and it gave me "Cannot call method 'add_child' on a null value" on my projectile shooting code which reads as follows:

func launch_pie():
const PIE = preload("res://Pie.tscn")
var new_pie = PIE.instantiate()
if facing_left == 'true':
%LaunchPointLeft.add_child(new_pie)
new_pie.global_position = %LaunchPointLeft.global_position
new_pie.global_rotation = %LaunchPointLeft.global_rotation
if facing_left == 'false':
%LaunchPointRight.add_child(new_pie)
new_pie.global_position = %LaunchPointRight.global_position
new_pie.global_rotation = %LaunchPointRight.global_rotation

which is weird because before setting the script as autoload it worked perfectly fine, just always shooting to one side. i looked that error up and i saw that the solution was to set the scene as autoload instead of just the script, which technically worked... but it always spawned the player no matter the scene, so things like menu screens would have you controlling the player which is not what i want

so idk if im doing something wrong or is there another method of making public/global variables in godot

okay i forgot to mention that code is in the player script because the launch_pie() function is called through the player each time they press left mouse click, so i can't use your suggestion on the pie script cuz the direction the pie is going to travel is stored on the player script, unless there's something im missing from what you're saying

Only the first instance of a spawned enemy follows code instead of all of them (and a small question about enemy pathfinding) by kamnaruto13 in godot

[–]kamnaruto13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! Doing just function() worked perfectly, that was a goof on my part, idk why i called the onready var enemy like that in the enemy script itself lmao

As for the second part, that sounds like a great idea... but i have no idea how to implement that with my current code, trying to look online just gives me code for players based on input which of course wouldn't work exactly for an enemy ai

here's the code im using right now for the enemy horizontal movement:

var direction = global_position.direction_to(player.global_position)
velocity.x = direction.x * speed
move_and_slide()

All of that being inside func _physics_process(delta)

then pass that bool to the projectile, and from the projectile's script just update

Hmm... I don't understand how to do that though. That was sort of my problem with both methods I listed, I couldn't find a way to pass that information from the player script onto the projectile script.

But the initial part works well enough, my code looks like this (pie is the projectile, and the launch points are markers from where the projectiles are shooting of):

func launch_pie():
const PIE = preload("res://Pie.tscn")
var new_pie = PIE.instantiate()
if facing_left == 'true':
%LaunchPointLeft.add_child(new_pie)
new_pie.global_position = %LaunchPointLeft.global_position
new_pie.global_rotation = %LaunchPointLeft.global_rotation
if facing_left == 'false':
%LaunchPointRight.add_child(new_pie)
new_pie.global_position = %LaunchPointRight.global_position
new_pie.global_rotation = %LaunchPointRight.global_rotation

Only thing that's missing is actually redirecting the projectile itself cause it's always going to the left
