4.2.1

Im working on the player script and this code

onready var head = $Head
onready var aimcast = $Head/Camera/AimCast
onready var muzzle = $Head/Gun/Muzzle
onready var bullet = preload("res://scenes/Bullet.tscn")

has the error

Parse Error: Unexpected “Identifier” in class body.

Hi, try placing quotations after the dollar sign.

onready var head = $”Head”
onready var aimcast = $”Head/Camera/AimCast”
onready var muzzle = $”Head/Gun/Muzzle”

I have never used quotation like that but the code worked just fine. Is it necessary?

replace onready with @onready

No. Only when the name of your node starts with a number or any of the nodes in the path include white spaces.

I just noticed if the node’s name has a white space in it the quotations are necessary
