i dont believe i can send videos

You can drag and drop or press the upload button above the text box

If your on mac you have to make sure to turn your mov to a mp4

thats what it looks like

im running windows 11

Can you check if the screen recording is mp4?

its too big to send

i need help with the actual issue though

Ok, I did see some red text so is there an error in your code? That can sometimes cause the debug not to load in my experience.

yes but i have NO idea what it means (Script inherits from native type ‘CharacterBody2D’, so it can’t be assigned to an object of type: ‘Node2D’)

I belive its because your characterbody2d is a child of your “level3” node

the error was there before that

also if i were to normally place it in the tilemap (deprecated now) how do i translate that to layers

Do you mean like just “dropping it” onto the main scene?

typically im supposed to put the character in the tilemap, but now that tilemaps are deprecated and it’s layers now, how do i translate that?

Ok I understand now sorry for the confusion. I believe it works mostly in the same ways other than you have to set the tileset on the righthand side of your screen instead of on the bottom like the tilemap used to.
