I want to make a character stop moving when I use one of the attacks(even if i press the arrows, to still not move). How can I do that?(I am a begginer). I read something about yield, but i didn’t quite understood and i don’t know if i need to use it…so if there are another methodes…
This is my code:

func _physics_process(delta):
	var current = state_machine.get_current_node()
	var velocity = Vector2.ZERO
	if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_right"):
		velocity.x = SPEED
	elif Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left"):
		velocity.x = -SPEED
	velocity=velocity.normalized()*SPEED
	if velocity.length()==0:
		state_machine.travel("idle")
	if velocity.length()>0:
		state_machine.travel("walking")
	velocity=move_and_slide(velocity, FLOOR)
	if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_power1"):
		state_machine.travel("attack1")
		return
	if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_power2"):
		state_machine.travel("attack2")
		return
	if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_power3"):
		state_machine.travel("attack3")
		return

If I understand you correctly, it sounds like you want the character movement to be paused while the attack animation plays. You probably want to use the functions in animation. Just trigger a function to pause controls at the beginning of animations and another at the end to continue. There are many ways to do this, but a very simple way would be to have a variable like movement_paused and set it based on those animation functions. Then, just check the variable in your movement code.

but how can i pause the controls? When the animation starts, i can modify the value of the variable, but how do i know when the animation it’s finished? Do i make a call method track or i can solve it easier?

You can run script functions at any point in an animation, or you can use the signal for when the animation ends.

In case you’re wondering, to call the function, you use a Call Method track
