Hi there!
I’m trying to create a timer using this code:
func levels_screen():
var timer = Timer.new()
timer.set_one_shot(true)
timer.set_wait_time(1)
get_parent().add_child(timer)
timer.connect("timeout", self, "exit_level")
timer.start()
func exit_level():
get_tree().change_scene("res://Scenes/UI/Levels.tscn")
But it doesn’t work. If I change the target from self to get_parent() and copy/paste the exit_level() on this node parent script, it works just fine.
I also tried removing get_parent() from add_child(timer) but it did not work as well.
What am I doing wrong?
Is the levels_screen() method being called? I tried your code on the root node in the scene and it worked for me. I suspect levels_screen isn’t called, or maybe it’s being called on a node that isn’t added to the scene?
This is what I used and it printed “TIME” as expected:
extends Node2D
func _timeout():
print("TIME")
func _ready():
var t = Timer.new()
add_child(t)
t.set_one_shot(true)
t.set_wait_time(1)
t.connect("timeout", self, "_timeout")
t.start()
I’m using Godot 3.1 BETA 1

It’s also working on my pc. Could you share the project so we can test with it?
