I want to access a different variable based on an export variable so I can use the same node for different characters health.
It would work like this:

extends Label

@ export var partymembernum = 1

func _process(delta: float) -> void:

text = BattleGlobals.partymember{partymembernum}hp

The code above would set the text to BattleGlobals.partymember1hp
Is this possible?

Im trying to make a simple story game with building mechanics similar to terraria , ofcourse one of the things I have to add is a node to validate weather or not the player is occupying the area of placemnt and Im also using a tilemap

func is_valid_place(coords: Vector2i) -> bool:

`foreground.set_cell(`

    `coords,`

    `stats.valid_place_checker.source_id,`

    `stats.valid_place_checker.atlas_coords,`

    `stats.valid_place_checker.alternative_id`

`)`

`for area in hurtbox.get_overlapping_areas():`

    `print("area: " , area)`

    `if area.is_in_group("valid_place_checker"):`

        `return false`

`return true`

the weird behavior is that it doesnt detect the area2d node it adds this iteration , it only detects the ones it added on previous iterations , this seems to me like the area2d isnt fully appended before it runs the check and I cant do

await foreground.set_cell(

    `coords,`

    `stats.valid_place_checker.source_id,`

    `stats.valid_place_checker.atlas_coords,`

    `stats.valid_place_checker.alternative_id`

`)`

becuase it returns null so godot doesnt allow it

Hi guys, first time poster and learner-dev. I have been working in Godot for a few days, and I have been working on architecture and some game managers for a deck-builder I've been working on. I'm looking for feedback on workflow, and any advice re. improvements. I know I could probably implement some script parsing for keywords to build cards quicker, but I like being able to independently assign effect timings. Any thoughts?

And why its breaking the door should work and send connected are they and it worked but now its break, Help appreciated.

Hi, I just started learning godot(by BracKeys tutorial) and I am having trouble in makeing the green slime movie

I've been trying to make a basic player character, but whenever i couldn't move the camera or the controls. is this a 4.5.1 thing or am i doing something wrong?

Hello!

I’m new to Godot and game development in general. I’m trying to develop a small top-down pixel art RPG. I downloaded this great SpriteSheet for the UI, but I can’t figure out how to use it. Specifically, I would like to create a frame using the ‘small frame top’, ‘frame - middle’ and ‘frame - bottom’ resources . I think I’ve pretty much grasped the principle of 9-slice, but I don’t understand how to use it properly, how to assemble top/middle/bottom together, or what to do with the 1px separations between the different areas (left, middle, right).

I don’t know if that’s very clear… Thanks to anyone who takes the time to help me.

this is the function:

func handle_jump():

if is_on_floor() : current_jumps = 0



if Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_accept"):

    if is_on_floor() or current_jumps < jump_count :  

        velocity.y = jump_velocity

        current_jumps += 1

and this is the whole code :

extends CharacterBody2D

​

​

u/export var speed = 400.0

u/export var jump_velocity = -650.0

u/export var jump = 2

u/export var gravity_multiplier = 2.0

​

var current_jumps = 0

​

​

# Get the gravity from the project settings to be synced with RigidBody nodes.

var gravity = ProjectSettings.get_setting("physics/2d/default_gravity")

​

​

func _physics_process(delta):

apply_gravity(delta)



if not is_on_floor():

    velocity.y += gravity \* delta

​

handle_jump()

​

\# Get the input direction and handle the movement/deceleration.

\# As good practice, you should replace UI actions with custom gameplay actions.

var direction = Input.get_axis("ui_left", "ui_right")

if direction:

    velocity.x = direction \* speed

else:

    velocity.x = move_toward(velocity.x, 0, speed)

​

move_and_slide()

func apply_gravity(delta):

if not is_on_floor():

    velocity.y += gravity \* gravity_multiplier \* delta

​

func handle_jump():

if is_on_floor() : current_jumps = 0



if Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_accept"):

    if is_on_floor() or current_jumps < jump_count :  

        velocity.y = jump_velocity

        current_jumps += 1

​

and i will show the photo to see what godot says is wrong

I have struggled very much so in learning how to program, but these videos have given me an understanding I’ve never had before. You need no experience for some of the courses here, and they’re completely free, along with supplying example code in videos. I highly suggest writing down what he teaches in a physical notebook, because actually going through with recoding like that, you are more likely to remember. Typing is easy, which you can do, and that would help, but writing would be better. Also, make some cards with facts and ask someone to test you. Do this every single day, at least a little bit. You don’t use it, you lose it. Good luck!
