So, i want my character(KinematicBody2D) to interact with tiles when colliding with them. They are located in a Tilemap. There are 6 tiles but i want to interact with only one. How i can get that tile in code? I tried get_node and get_node_and_resource but i get an error.
Sorry for my bad english
Individual tiles in the tilemap can be accessed using get_cell()
To convert from world coordinates (player’s pos) to tile coordinates, use world_to_map()
For example:
if is_colliding():
var tile_pos = map.world_to_map(get_pos())
var cell = map.get_cell(tile_pos.x, tile_pos.y)
See the TileMap docs for details:
When i do this, my tiles disappper. Don’t know why… I used
var tile_pos = get_node(‘TileMap’).map.world_to_map(get_pos()) and
var cell = get_node(‘TileMap’).map.get_cell(tile_pos.x, tile_pos.y)
in KinematicBody2D but my tiles just disappear.

To be clear, your tiles disappear when you do get_node()? That doesn’t seem possible, as that code doesn’t alter anything - are you sure you’re not doing something else as well?
Also, is your TileMap a child of KinematicBody2D? That seems strange…

Yes, my tiles just dissapear. And if i delete these two variables (tilepos and cell) they re-appear.
TileMap is not a child of KinematicBody2D, is a child of Node2D
