Commenting for any future newbies out there. When I was watching ep. 2, the rotation part stumped me (looking at mouse). Make sure you align your character with it's own scene if that makes sense. Notice at 12:30, he aligns the sprite on that axis crosshair. That looks like the origin point for all scenes. I didn't realize this and had my character offset more bottom right and therefore, rotation was funky lol. You don't have to have the scene origin on that axis crosshair, you just have to make sure your character & scene are aligned with one another. Was stumped for 20 min 'till i made this realization (google couldn't help me lol) so don't be like me.

@Onox4 2 года назад

Thanks a lot for this tutorial ! 👍 A suggestion I’ve seen in another tutorial : on your Player node, you can click the button “Makes sure the object’s children are not selectable” to the right of the lock button in the top bar (just under the tabs). This prevents you from accidentally dragging the Sprite and CollisionShape2D without moving the KinematicBody2D itself

@jmbiv_dev 2 года назад

This is a great suggestion, thanks for posting it! I tend to not select things via the scene view (usually the scene tree instead), so I always forget about that option, but it's a really helpful one to use.

@ottomortadela8040 4 года назад

In the sprite properties for our character, we can check off the "centered" checkbox under Offset. You move the player instead, is there any difference between centered/not-centered?

@jmbiv_dev 4 года назад

Hitting the "centered" button causes the origin of your sprite to be the center instead of the top-left, which is the default origin. You would see a difference if you were rotating your sprite, for example, but because we do all of our movement and rotating on the player itself (the kinematic body), rather than the sprite, we don't need to check it. I'm assuming you're talking about when I move the player into the screen around 15:18, so correct me if I'm wrong, but in that case "centered" doesn't actually put the player in the center of the screen, so we had to move it down a bit so we could see it. Hope that answers your question!

@ottomortadela8040 4 года назад

@@jmbiv_dev Yes I was talking about around 15:18 and this is a great answer, thank you!

@CoryPelizzari Год назад

I've been stuck in the twilight of not being able to even complete a top down movement script because I'm constantly seeing others do it in different ways, which leads me to ask why. Then I get conflicting answers over what's the best practice and then I find myself here, literally 2 months into learning game development and I haven't made a single movement script because I'm afraid of scripting something that's not optimized. Then the keywords start to fade from memory and I feel like I know less than before, then I get depressed. Having a mental illness doesn't help either. Let's just say I'm having very acute difficulty with learning how to program a game and it's getting me down.

@pokemonXD1 Год назад

unless you're making a AAA game on a game console, you don't need to worry about optimizing. Just make something that works and do a little bit of optimizing/cleanup after you've got that bit of code going. The next time you make something similar, you'll already have an idea of how you like/dislike doing things and can then further refine your decisions or just try different way for fun. Just keep making stuff and getting good at googling the stuff you forget. Hardly anyone keeps a copy of the manual in their head.

@johndoe35717 Год назад

when i try to drag the pixels out to use the player it always gets chunks of the other characters

@jmbiv_dev Год назад

That might be because you imported the art pack with filter enabled - try clicking on the art pack in your file explorer in Godot, then clicking the "Import" tab where your scene tree is, and disabling "Filter" and then reimporting. If that doesn't work, try changing your grid size when you are dragging out the selection box to 1px by 1px!

@TheRealKaiProton 2 года назад

any windows users out there, you can use F5 to run the game, or F6 to run the current scene.

I bet it will! Give it a try. If you're struggling with Godot, you should also give GDQuest's "Learn to Code From Zero with Godot" a try (here: gdquest.github.io/learn-gdscript/)
