Duplicate Sprite

[past arrow]

Hi there! When I instantiate my player into the 3d environment, there is a tiny copy of him at the bottom, do you happen to know why? lmk if u need anymore info on my code.

[red hatch]

So it shows up only when you instantiate the player scene? What does the scene tree and script look like for it?

[past arrow]

yeah it only appears when i instantiate the player scene. Here's my scene trees and scripts

[red hatch]

Hmm, can't see anything obviously wrong with it.. it all looks pretty straight forward

[past arrow]

why is it that when i call Vector3() it can either move it along to x, y, z axis but it can also rotate my sprite 90 degrees? is it because i put it inside a set_rotation call?

[red hatch]

If you manually instantiate the scene as a child in the editor, that works as expected?

[past arrow]

let me check

is there a way i can copy and paste my animated sprite from my player node into my level scene?

[red hatch]

If the sprite moves when you rotate it then it is offset from its parent node

[past arrow]

so yeah, when i make it a child of my level node it appear to be just fine

but when i try to instantiate my player from the player scene, there's a duplicate

[red hatch]

Try putting a print in insertFei so you can see if it's run twice, or if the duplicate comes from somewhere else

[past arrow]

yeah it seems to be running twice

[red hatch]

Do you know how to set breakpoints and use the debugger?

[past arrow]

yeah ill check with that now

[past arrow]

Im not sure why but it does run my insertFei() call twice

it gets called once, and instantiates my player, but then it seemingly restarts from the beginning of ready once it instantiates to do it a second time

so the 3d_fei.gd script is connected to the 3d_fei node,
and arena.gd to the Arena mesh but which script is connected to the battleScene Node?

maybe you made second script by mistake

to me it seems like you have 3 scripts

[past arrow]

I see, when I click either of then they take me to the same arena.gd script

The extra is probably connected to my Arena mesh node, how do I remove the connection?

Nevermind I figured it out and the problem's been solved! Tysm
