My scene has the following code to instantiate mobs:

var mob = Mob.instance()
add_child(mob)

So I am instantiating a node. Which comes with a child node (VisibilityNotifier2D) named Visibility.

How can I listen to the screen_exited signal of the Visibility node?

Here is what I tried with the / to query child nodes:

mob/Visibility.connect("screen_exited", self, "_on_Visibility_screen_exited")

Since it is an instance it won’t compile.

mob.get_node(“Visibility”).connect(“screen_exited”, self, “_on_Visibility_screen_exited” )

Just a typo (it’s mob.get_node()) but it works ! Thank you !
