Question

Is this correct, i want to access the animation player in my monster.tscn in my filesystem to my monster_run.tscn scene, like the monster.tscn contains the actual monster with the animation, and my monster_run.tscn contains my characterbody3d, the script, and basically what you needed for a monster kind of thing. I am a newbie so i still don’t have an idea how to do it

var m_holder = preload(“res://Walls/scenes/monster.tscn”)
var monster_anim
var monster

func ready():
monster = m_holder.instantiate()
monster_anim = monster.get_node(“AnimationPlayer”)

2

The name of the function is _ready()
Other than that I don’t see an issue why it shouldn’t work. Do you get an error when running the project? Or what’s the issue you have?

3

oh yeah i forgot to put the _ here, but it said null so i dont get why

You get null on what? Please paste an error message.
