Hi, very new beginner to Godot here. I'm following this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Luf2Kr5s3BM at 36:32, and in my Player script I try to use AnimationTree.set but I get an error, "Cannot call non-static function "set()" on the class "AnimationTree" directly. Make an instance instead."
What I did worked in the tutorial, but it was uploaded a year ago so things have probably changed since then. What does this error message mean exactly, and how can I fix it? Thanks in advance

#

you need to do "animation_tree" because that's what you called the variable

#

hm

#

yeah idk

#

is @onready var animation_tree = $AnimationTree correct?

#

it looks correct to me

#

acutally wait

#

the animation tree is a child of the animationpayer

#

so the path is wrong

#

it should be $AnimationPlayer/AnimationTree

Ohhh

#

I think that worked!! Thank you so much
