(The entire code extends a KinematicBody2D)
In my project you have to press a button to switch dimensions. I am trying to store the old player location and teleport the player in the new node to this location. I have written some code but it just teleports me to the other dimension and doesn’t teleport me to the right coordinates. and I would like to know how to edit my code so that it works. Since I didn’t find any code samples of a similar project online I had to code this entire script without any help. Even though it isn’t much, it is hard for me since I am really bad at coding. I have used 2 global variables: pos: This stores the player position force_active: This is used because a certain part in my code checks if it is one. The same code is in both nodes, I am using two different scripts for both KinematicBodies in these two nodes. The only thing that varies is that if you switch from 1 to 2 force_active has to be one and if you switch from 2 to 1 it is set to 2.
This is the sender in the first node:
if Input.is_action_just_pressed("switch"):
Global.force_active = 1
Global.pos = position
get_tree().change_scene("res://SecondWold.tscn")
In the other scene there is a “receiver”
func _reveiver ():
if Global.force_active == 1:
Global.force_active = 0
position = Vector2(Global.pos)
(This is the code if you want to go in the other direction:
if Input.is_action_just_pressed("switch"):
Global.force_active = 2
Global.pos = position
get_tree().change_scene("res://MainNode.tscn")
and
func _reveiver ():
if Global.force_active == 2:
Global.force_active = 0
position = Vector2(Global.pos)
If you answer please keep in mind that I am a beginner.
Somebody on Reddit asked me something and I just wanted to clarify a few things. (This is just the reddit comment pasted so it may seem weird)
Thank you for the answer. I had to clarify it, it just switches the
dimension but it doesn’t teleport you. In both nodes there are 2
KinematicBody2D and both have similar scripts (They are only different
in one little thing that I will mention later) Let’s call their
scripts 1 and 2. If you want to switch from 1 to 2 the following
should happen The sender in the input function in 1 should do the
following: 1: Check if E (“switch”) is pressed
2: Store the players position (“pos”)
3: Set force_active to one
4: Switch dimensions In 2 there is the receiver 1: It should check if force_active is 1
2: If it is it should set it to 0
3: It should teleport you the position saved in “pos” The same happens if you want to teleport from 2 to 1 except that it
sets force_active to 2 and that the script in 1 checks for a 2. Both
variables are global variables (The docs said that I only had to put
my global.gd into autoload and activate singleton) This is the current
global.gd code: extends Node2D var pos = 0 var force_active = 0Currently it switches dimensions. I tried to try out the variables but
I can’t get text labels with variables working even with normal vars
so I figured that It would be easier to ask before I waste another
hour trying to figure out how to debug these vars. I am just
going to paste my entire code into this reddit thread (This is the
code of 1) Maybe it is going to be easier to understand it if you read
my entire code:extends KinematicBody2D export (int) var speed = 600 export (int) var jump_speed = -900 export (int) var gravity = 3000 export (float, 0, 1.0) var friction = 0.1 export (float, 0, 1.0) var acceleration = 0.125 var velocity = Vector2.ZERO var gprt = 0.2 var pos = 0 func get_input(): velocity.x = 0 if Input.is_action_pressed("walk_right"): velocity.x += speed if Input.is_action_pressed("walk_left"): velocity.x -= speed #Sender starts here if Input.is_action_just_pressed("switch"): Global.force_active = 1 Global.pos = position get_tree().change_scene("res://SecondWold.tscn") func _physics_process(delta): get_input() velocity.y += gravity * delta velocity = move_and_slide(velocity, Vector2.UP) if Input.is_action_just_pressed("jump"): if is_on_floor() && (gprt > 0): velocity.y = jump_speed var dir = 0 if Input.is_action_pressed("walk_right"): dir += 1 if Input.is_action_pressed("walk_left"): dir -= 1 if dir != 0: velocity.x = lerp(velocity.x, dir * speed, acceleration) else: velocity.x = lerp(velocity.x, 0, friction) #Receiver starts here func _reveiver (): if Global.force_active == 2: Global.force_active = 0 position = Vector2(Global.pos)
