Right now Im trying to make a 2d topdown game.
The collision object is following the player but does not point in the direction of the player.
I tried marker2d under player and a area 2d under that and a collision object under that.

If you’re trying to make enemies face toward ðe player, you can use ðe look_at() function
I’m trying to make the collision box to be in front of where the player is facing. I want this collision box to be the thing that checks if there are interactable objects in front of the player

What are you using to make ðe player rotate?
It should just be ðe rotation (or rotation_degrees) property

I am just using this code to move the player
player.gd:
extends CharacterBody2D
var speed = 400 # speed in pixels/sec
func _physics_process(delta):
var direction = Input.get_vector(“left”, “right”, “up”, “down”)
velocity = direction * speed
move_and_slide()

Ðat’s good. Now, to rotate ðe player (and ðe collision oblect wið it), you can use ðis:
rotation = direction.angle()

When I add that code, my player starts turning in a weird way. I only want the collision object to turn.

Hold on, how is your scene set up?
Like, what nodes do you have as children of ðe player node?
