You get the node via its path and then access the position property.

I did, this is what I did:

var instance_object = preload("path of scene")

func _physics_process(delta):
self.position = instance_object.position

it doesn’t work and gives me an error, please help.

Did you instance the object? What is the error?

" invalid get index ‘position’ on ‘base packed scene’ ".

You need to instance the object first.
