Make sure to paste scripts instead of screen shots

Make it easier for new users to format and preview code in their posts

Posting here so to be linked for later use instead of re-typing this every time Make sure you paste scripts instead of screenshots. To properly format pasted code use three ticks ``` at the start and end of your paste like so: ``` # type or paste code here func _ready() -> void:     print("My ready function!") ``` Results in: # type or paste code here func _ready() -> void: print("My ready function!") Press the </> button or ctrl+e in the forum to create these ticks. [2024-09-02…

Seems like you must be getting an error no? Does your game freeze and the editor present a stack trace?

I believe your anim variable needs a dollar sign, this means to get a node named “AnimatedSprite2D”, without the dollar sign it gets a different value that isn’t useful.

var anim = $AnimatedSprite2D

Then you will need to use lowercase .play on it.

i added the $ sign and lowercased the p just like u asked and now i am getting an error called,

Player.gd:40 @ player_anim(): Node not found: "AnimatedSprite2D" (relative to "/root/world/Player").

(also thanks for letting me know about the usage of ``` i am new to these things so i didnt know about them)

edit: i fixed the error, i changed the name of the animatedsprite2d which seemed to be causing the error but my charecter still isnt moving

final edit: i was trying to move the charecter using the wasd keys even tho by default its set to the arrow keys omg i am so dumb xD
