Hi. ive installed Godot about 1 week ago.
i added a Area2D into my game but it only appears as a dot
i also added a collisionshape2d but it doesnt help.
(Dont worry about the script ive added to the Area2D. it still doesnt work without the script.)

Here is a screenshot.

What do you mean by “not working?” What are you trying to do? The area looks fine to me.

Is your problem connecting the signal in the node tab?

When others place the Area2D into their game it is a rektangle
But it is only a dot on my screen

The rectangle is the CollisionShape2D, the Area2D is still just a dot.

By itself an Area2D doesn’t yet have a shape. You have to add a collision shape to define the area’s region.

Add a CollisionShape2D child, as the yellow warning triangle tells you.
