Input errors and scene hierarchy

[dull sphinx]

So, I have a Computer scene in my main game scene. Within that Computer scene, there is a computer SCREEN scene. the screen scene need to process inputs, which display on the screen mesh in the computer scene, in the main game scene.

I'm having issues with _input(event : InputEvent) not being recognized in the screen scene. Any assistance?

The ONLY way I've gotten it to work is putting it under process() but I really don't wanna do that

The input function should have an underscore, no? func _input(event):

Also your computer screen has Windows-esque paths but forward slashes? HERETIC!

That has no effect, originally the parent node of the computer scene was taking the inputs, now it's not

It was bugging out the Strings </3

And also uniqueness

Here's the hierarchy for the computer itself

I have a feeling it's the Subviewport

IT'S NOT

Did you figure out what it is?

[dull sphinx]

Nope

The screen scene isn't utilizing _input(event) like, at all

So I tried recreating this. I set the up arrow to change a label text to a random number. If I run just the 2D scene, the input works fine. If I run the 3D scene with the viewport texture, no input is captured.

I know that might not sound like a great deal of help, but it means that this is a normal case (not some weird edge case in your project)

Darn

There may be cleaner ways to handle it, but one method is input forwarding:

You can filter input here as needed, etc

YES

Thank you sm

It works

Just,,,, 218 times

No problem! Happy to help

Oh, that's because you are using pressed, and not just_pressed

[dull sphinx]

Ah

Yea we're all set now

Thank you again :]
