I created a class called Card. It has 2 properties, title and image. When they are changed, it also changes a Label node and a TextureRect node respectively (they are children of the card). My goal is to ease the card design in the editor for non-programmers so as they need not touch the underlying components.
It works well in the editor, but not at runtime. I have the error “get-path: Cannot get path of node as it is not in a scene tree.”
I suspect it is because when instancing the card, the children are not yet created, whereas in the editor they are already.
How could I solve this particular problem?
To reproduce, set the title property of the Card class in the editor to “Test”.
The files are:
# Game.gd
extends Node
onready var Card = preload("res://Scenes/Card.tscn")
func _ready():
for i in range(10):
var card = Card.instance() # <-- crashes here (Stack 1)
card.position.x = i * 50
add_child(card)
And:
# Card.gd
tool
extends Node2D
export(String) var title setget set_title
export(Texture) var image setget set_image
func set_title(new):
title = new
$Outline/Title.text = new # <-- crashes here (Stack 2)
func set_image(new):
image = new
$Outline/Image.texture = new
