Tutorial problem

[keen crescent]

I was following projectile tutorial form gdquest and this happened. Any fix?

[amber bay]

Line 36, you wrote projectile.instance() instead of projectile.instantiate()

[keen crescent]

Oh god this is embarrassing XP

Thx

[keen crescent]

@amber bay I am now facing this problem please halp

I checked the gdquest projectile resource file and I can't figure it out why packscene not working in my code

[amber bay]

what is the tutorial again?

oh

hum

did you make a variable to preload your scene?

something like this

[keen crescent]

Yes

Oh wait no

The video tutorial didn't have that

This https://youtu.be/sWUGxkbh2fg?si=EhyEsqqSDjDKs8tb

[amber bay]

oh, it's an Godot 3.5 tutorial, I don't really know this version but from what I see, it preloads the scenes well, at the top of the scripts (the two const)

[keen crescent]

Yeah I'm using Godot 4 so

But funny thing is that when I open the demo project and I check their project file, is has no error

[keen crescent]

I'll try this later

But will it work on const tho

[amber bay]

oh, try to change BulletScene by bullet

[keen crescent]

will do

[keen crescent]

:(

[amber bay]

Change const by a variable

[amber bay]

I running out of ideas 😅

[keen crescent]

F

Thx for taking your time

[wise bison]

try to change ".gd" to ".tscn"

you're probably trying to get a scene, not a script

[keen crescent]

Jesus christ

I am emberrising myself further

[wise bison]

not at all, it happens to me all the time too, that's the only reason I noticed

[keen crescent]

And now this TwT

[wise bison]

try to go into thee 120mm cannon scene (and script), it says it can't find "ShootingPoint". I suspect there is a mistake somewhere there

[keen crescent]

Ah nvm found it

[wise bison]

it says there is a problem in line 9 of that script (120_mm_cannon.gd), so either there is a problem with declaring that variable or there is some other problem

[wise bison]

regarding that variable or node

[keen crescent]

Yeah I fixed it

I understand now

[wise bison]

also, just curious, but is there now a global "bullet" var and a local one within the shoot function? Cause you should generally avoid giving two different things the same name if they are within the same script

[keen crescent]

oh don't worry i know

and I fixed it as the tutorial shown

like this

it works now so that's all that matter
