Godot Version 4.7.stable.flathub [5b4e9cb0f] (being run on Bazzite) Question Hello! I am following along with CatlikeCoding’s Godot tutorial, specifically the Conveyor chapter (see: Conveyors - True Top-Down 2D ). In it, instead of using a Sprite2D child node for the sprite, they instead point foll…

You’re not wrong, I did send out an email to them so awaiting a potential response. However! I did actually find a solution! It’s definitely an issue with versions I think, but basically, bc Line2D stores the point values within a PackedVector2Array, you cannot set the new point value like below: @…

Did you also set CanvasItem.texture_repeat ?

@renevanderark I somehow had missed that setting. Upon doing so, it does run properly!.. Though, Only if I hard code the Line2D.Points.x values. If, for instance, I hard code the Line2D.Points[1].x value to 24, but in the map scene set the Length of the conveyor to 32, this is what it looks like on…

[image] robinyatos: and line.points[1].x != length: You should not compare a floating point value like the xof a Vector2 using exact operators like == and !=. Use this function in stead and see if that works for you: is_equal_approx that makes: if line and line.points.size() == 2 and not…

@renevanderark I updated the script accordingly, and while the functionality still works (i.e. the length of the actual conveyor updates properly), the actual sprite/visual still does not appear unless I manually hard code in the line.points[1].x I even tried forcing the line.points[1].x to a diff…

I think you could try adding line.queue_redraw() after updating.

[image] robinyatos: reaching for straws lol). I’m sure the author of the tutorial can be reached as well, right? People here on the forum will quickly miss the context, unless they’re going to do the tutorial themselves.

Did your email just arrive? :slightly_smiling_face: [image] Catlike Coding's True Top-Down 2D Tutorial Series Tutorials I made a small update to the series. Starting from part 13 it is now made with Godot 4.7. Line2D points used to be accessed directly, but th…

Yes it did! So I adapted everything, also for other stuff beyond the point of discussion. By the way: the rule of thumb to not directly compare floats does not apply in this context, because we’re checking if the value has been changed at all. Also, we’re working with ints that we cast to float (le…

Haha yep! I sent the email out and immediately had found the answer right after. And thank you again @catlikecoding for the response and updating your tutorials! They’re really well done.
