I need that in a frame an action of a different scene can make, so I know that you can call a method from animation player, but I need that this method return true when the animation player call it, if not it return false, how can I do that?
I am calling the method In an instance of a different scene , so when the frame of animation player call the method, this different scene with the instance can make an action

If you bind parameters to the function, you can then specify what will be those variables from the animation player, you can simply have a variable at the end which is defaulted to false and when the animation player calls it just let it pass true with it

 func WantedFunction(var1, var2, var3, isFromAnimationPlayer = false)

but if I do:

instance.WantedFunction() == false:
emit_signal("signal")

it´s always returning false, so the signal isn´t emmited when it reach the frame.

or how I can do in WantedFunction to change the false to true when the animation player frame reach?? sorry I dont know how to do it

  • You can make a ‘Call Method Track’ in the Animationplayer.
  • Create a keyframe on that same track where you want it to call to a
    function in the same scene.
  • Have that (same scene) function call another scene’s function.
