I know that

var Q = "qwerty"
print(Q[5])

it will print y

but what if the string is always changing:

var Q = "qwerty"
func   ready():
           Q = "ok"
           print(Q[5])

This will return an error of Invalid get index ‘5’ (on base: ‘String’).
I want to make it ignore if it doesn’t have that index and just return null. Anyone??

Since there is no catching exceptions with GDscript, just use an if statement to check if the length of the string is greater than the index.
