I have a character (platformer) which moves with the camera. When i open box and drag item from it. I want to move the node to mouse pos. How to do this with moved camera?

func _input(ev):
   if ev.type == InputEvent.MOUSE_MOTION:
      self.set_pos(ev.pos+some_pos)

What should some_pos be in this case? Or as heading says is there any function like that?

I’m not sure what you’re asking about… When you want set position of node to mouse position you may use get_global_mouse_pos() or get_local_mouse_pos()(e.g on Camera2D) in CanvasItem class. What’s wrong with just set_pos(ev.pos)? Btw. self here is not necessary.
