I want to get the player name by asking his name in the main menu, but I don’t know wich node of the control’s child node to use. I want to make a box for him to type his name and a button to confirm. I’m begginer. Could someone show me a simple example of how to do that??

Use a TextEdit node. Read the text with get_node("TextEdit").get_text().
