cant figure out how to delete
I figured the first part out cant figure how to delete
Deleting topics doesn’t work particularly well here. It’s better to make a reply with your own solution even if it seems obvious in retrospect.
Thanks for letting me know, my apologies.
What I was looking for was help implementing physics on a drag and drop process, turned out I was doing it all wrong. I found a post on reddit a long time ago with the logic and information that updating the position of a characterbody is different than that of a rigid body, so I was updating the self.global_position in the process function when I should have been doing this:
velocity = (new_pos - global_position) / delta
my understanding is that this actually updates the velocity of the character object and that allows it to still behave like a character in game and not constantly hard updating the location of the object. Still have many more questions about many other things so will leave those up…no matter how silly
