Hello guys,

maybe you can help a noob out.

I have the following tree:

Game
-------Rooms
------------------Room0
-------Player

Room0 is a child scene and instantiates an enemy scene within its script room.gd. My enemy navigation needs to know the global position of the Player node. Before i added room nodes i had enemies as direct children of game. But now my room script instantiates them via script

I tried to drag and drop my Player in my enemy script. But it says “Can’t drop nodes because script ‘enemy.gd(*)’ is not used in this scene”

Anyone knows how i access the player position?

Thanks a lot!

When your room is created, before it creates the enemies you should get the player with a global node path. After you create an enemy, you can set it’s player variable.

Thx, i was able to fix it with proper pathing :slight_smile:
