Trying to make my character tired after dying

[Fho]

Question

So I’m a beginner and trying to make my characters have decreased speed and different animation after they die. However, my problem is that I don’t know how to connect my death script with my player script.
So basically, I have a “var tired = false” and when the player dies the “tired = true” but it didn’t work since tired is still false. I hope I explained this clearly.
player script:

dying script:

different nodes

If your dying script knows that body.is_in_group("Player"), then the player must be equivalent to body, so you can use the player’s variable via body.

body.tired = true

Make sure to paste scripts instead of code screenshots

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…
