Godot 4.2.2
When the player(body) enters area2D and picks up item, it reparents it to the player’s body position.
func player_entered(body):
“position = body.position”
I want the item to reparent to the player’s “hand” child node.
I’ve tried referencing the hand node path and “position = hand.position”
but it didn’t work.
What do you mean it did not work? Would be good to be specific with description and supply sample code. Use Preformatted Text to make code easier to read.
extends Sprite2D
@onready var collision = $Area2D/CollisionShape2D
@onready var hand = get_node(“/root/Testworld/player/pivot/hand”)
@export var stats : Item
@export var skill : Skill
func _ready():
if stats != null:
texture = stats.icon
func _on_player_entered(body):
call_deferred(“reparent”,body.find_child(“Weapons”))
position = hand.position
body.add_item(stats,skill)
collision.call_deferred(“set_disabled”,true)
It works but the item doesn’t spawn where the hand node is positioned, it spawns on the left top corner of the screen.
You probably want to set position = Vector2.ZERO for it to snap to the hand position.
func _on_player_entered(body):
reparent.call_deferred(body.find_child("Weapons"), false)
position = Vector2.ZERO
body.add_item(stats, skill)
collision.set_deferred("disabled", true)
use three ticks for pasting code like so
```

Your code worked! Just had to change Vector2.ZERO to hand.position. Thank you so much!
Then the only thing I really changed was this “false”
reparent.call_deferred(body.find_child("Weapons"), false)
reparent’s second argument is “keep global transform”, by default it’s true and will alter the node’s position so it remains “in-place” which isn’t what you wanted since you are also editing the position manually.
