Working with code - part 2

2 points in this part:

• target another nodes
• focus on the flow

For target another nodes, we can use the get_node or $ syntax. Like this

var player = get_node("Player")
var player = $Player

We can access to each node attributes, but also to each class properties like this

var player = $Player
player.position = Vector2(100, 100)
player.test_scale = 5

Now on the parent scene, we can get the children node and update inside an if (flow) statement node properties or class properties.

extends Node2D

# Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time.
func _ready():
	$Logo.rotation_degrees = 90

# Called every frame. 'delta' is the elapsed time since the previous frame.
func _process(delta):
	$Logo.rotation_degrees += 10

	# flow -> if rotation > 180 -> 0
	if ($Logo.rotation_degrees > 180):
		$Logo.rotation_degrees = 0

	if ($Logo.position.x > 1000):
		print('position exceeded')
		$Logo.pos.x = 0

For array, we can for loop on it like this:

var some_numbers: Array[int] = [1, 2, 3]
for number in some_numbers:
    print(number)

Or we can access to each element by index:

var some_numbers: Array[int] = [1, 2, 3]
print(some_numbers[0])
