Player pick up object

Question

I have a player of type kinematicbody 3D and I want him to be able to pick up a lamp of type starticbody3d with an area node attached how do I make my player pick it up and parent the lamp to him so it goes wherever the player goes

Answer 1

Connect the StaticBody signal input_event (or of the Area if you want a different shape otherwise you don't need a Area) to a script:

func _on_StaticBody_input_event(camera, event, click_position, click_normal, shape_idx):
    if event is InputEventMouseButton and event.pressed:
        var static_body = $StaticBody
        static_body.get_parent().remove_child(static_body)
        $Player.add_child(static_body)
        # optionally adjust the position
