Question
Hi! I have this guillotine sprite that goes up and down and i want to hide the parts that goes outside the machine. Do you have a modular way to do this? I expect to have more of these in the future.
You can use masking, here’s a simple way to do that first you have to draw a sprite that is white where you want to display your sprite and transparent where you want to make it not visible,Like this
and what you have to do is make a mask sprite like this
and make the guillotine sprite child of the mask sprite (It’s just a normal sprite) and enable Clip children on the mask sprite
Your scene tree should look like this
and if you have done everything correctly,your sprite should look like this!
Note:Your Blade’s mask sprite have to be a simple Box Just to hide the upper part
