class GridContainer

sort_children signal.

Anchors the bottom edge of the node to the origin, the center, or the end of its parent control. It changes how the bottom margin updates when the node moves or changes size. You can use one of the godot.Control_Anchor constants for convenience.

Anchors the left edge of the node to the origin, the center or the end of its parent control. It changes how the left margin updates when the node moves or changes size. You can use one of the godot.Control_Anchor constants for convenience.

Anchors the right edge of the node to the origin, the center or the end of its parent control. It changes how the right margin updates when the node moves or changes size. You can use one of the godot.Control_Anchor constants for convenience.

Anchors the top edge of the node to the origin, the center or the end of its parent control. It changes how the top margin updates when the node moves or changes size. You can use one of the godot.Control_Anchor constants for convenience.

The focus access mode for the control (None, Click or All). Only one Control can be focused at the same time, and it will receive keyboard signals.

Tells Godot which node it should give keyboard focus to if the user presses the down arrow on the keyboard or down on a gamepad by default. You can change the key by editing the ui_down input action. The node must be a godot.Control. If this property is not set, Godot will give focus to the closest godot.Control to the bottom of this one.

Tells Godot which node it should give keyboard focus to if the user presses the left arrow on the keyboard or left on a gamepad by default. You can change the key by editing the ui_left input action. The node must be a godot.Control. If this property is not set, Godot will give focus to the closest godot.Control to the left of this one.

Tells Godot which node it should give keyboard focus to if the user presses the right arrow on the keyboard or right on a gamepad by default. You can change the key by editing the ui_right input action. The node must be a godot.Control. If this property is not set, Godot will give focus to the closest godot.Control to the bottom of this one.

Tells Godot which node it should give keyboard focus to if the user presses the top arrow on the keyboard or top on a gamepad by default. You can change the key by editing the ui_top input action. The node must be a godot.Control. If this property is not set, Godot will give focus to the closest godot.Control to the bottom of this one.

Tells Godot which node it should give keyboard focus to if the user presses Tab on a keyboard by default. You can change the key by editing the ui_focus_next input action.

If this property is not set, Godot will select a "best guess" based on surrounding nodes in the scene tree.

Tells Godot which node it should give keyboard focus to if the user presses Shift+Tab on a keyboard by default. You can change the key by editing the ui_focus_prev input action.

If this property is not set, Godot will select a "best guess" based on surrounding nodes in the scene tree.

Controls the direction on the horizontal axis in which the control should grow if its horizontal minimum size is changed to be greater than its current size, as the control always has to be at least the minimum size.

Controls the direction on the vertical axis in which the control should grow if its vertical minimum size is changed to be greater than its current size, as the control always has to be at least the minimum size.

Changes the tooltip text. The tooltip appears when the user's mouse cursor stays idle over this control for a few moments, provided that the godot.Control.mouseFilter property is not godot.Control_MouseFilterEnum.ignore. You can change the time required for the tooltip to appear with gui/timers/tooltip_delay_sec option in Project Settings.

The tooltip popup will use either a default implementation, or a custom one that you can provide by overriding godot.Control._MakeCustomTooltip. The default tooltip includes a godot.PopupPanel and godot.Label whose theme properties can be customized using godot.Theme methods with the "TooltipPanel" and "TooltipLabel" respectively. For example:

var style_box = StyleBoxFlat.new()
style_box.set_bg_color(Color(1, 1, 0))
style_box.set_border_width_all(2)
# We assume here that the `theme` property has been assigned a custom Theme beforehand.
theme.set_stylebox("panel", "TooltipPanel", style_box)
theme.set_color("font_color", "TooltipLabel", Color(0, 1, 1))

Enables whether input should propagate when you close the control as modal.

If false, stops event handling at the viewport input event handling. The viewport first hides the modal and after marks the input as handled.

Distance between the node's bottom edge and its parent control, based on godot.Control.anchorBottom.

Margins are often controlled by one or multiple parent godot.Container nodes, so you should not modify them manually if your node is a direct child of a godot.Container. Margins update automatically when you move or resize the node.

Distance between the node's left edge and its parent control, based on godot.Control.anchorLeft.

Margins are often controlled by one or multiple parent godot.Container nodes, so you should not modify them manually if your node is a direct child of a godot.Container. Margins update automatically when you move or resize the node.

Distance between the node's right edge and its parent control, based on godot.Control.anchorRight.

Margins are often controlled by one or multiple parent godot.Container nodes, so you should not modify them manually if your node is a direct child of a godot.Container. Margins update automatically when you move or resize the node.

Distance between the node's top edge and its parent control, based on godot.Control.anchorTop.

Margins are often controlled by one or multiple parent godot.Container nodes, so you should not modify them manually if your node is a direct child of a godot.Container. Margins update automatically when you move or resize the node.

The default cursor shape for this control. Useful for Godot plugins and applications or games that use the system's mouse cursors.

Note: On Linux, shapes may vary depending on the cursor theme of the system.

Controls whether the control will be able to receive mouse button input events through godot.Control._GuiInput and how these events should be handled. Also controls whether the control can receive the mouse_entered, and mouse_exited signals. See the constants to learn what each does.

focus_entered signal.

focus_exited signal.

gui_input signal.

minimum_size_changed signal.

modal_closed signal.

mouse_entered signal.

mouse_exited signal.

resized signal.

size_flags_changed signal.

Enables whether rendering of godot.CanvasItem based children should be clipped to this control's rectangle. If true, parts of a child which would be visibly outside of this control's rectangle will not be rendered.

The node's global position, relative to the world (usually to the top-left corner of the window).

The minimum size of the node's bounding rectangle. If you set it to a value greater than (0, 0), the node's bounding rectangle will always have at least this size, even if its content is smaller. If it's set to (0, 0), the node sizes automatically to fit its content, be it a texture or child nodes.

By default, the node's pivot is its top-left corner. When you change its godot.Control.rectRotation or godot.Control.rectScale, it will rotate or scale around this pivot. Set this property to godot.Control.rectSize / 2 to pivot around the Control's center.

The node's position, relative to its parent. It corresponds to the rectangle's top-left corner. The property is not affected by godot.Control.rectPivotOffset.

The node's rotation around its pivot, in degrees. See godot.Control.rectPivotOffset to change the pivot's position.

The node's scale, relative to its godot.Control.rectSize. Change this property to scale the node around its godot.Control.rectPivotOffset. The Control's godot.Control.hintTooltip will also scale according to this value.

Note: This property is mainly intended to be used for animation purposes. Text inside the Control will look pixelated or blurry when the Control is scaled. To support multiple resolutions in your project, use an appropriate viewport stretch mode as described in the [https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.4/tutorials/rendering/multiple_resolutions.html](documentation) instead of scaling Controls individually.

Note: If the Control node is a child of a godot.Container node, the scale will be reset to Vector2(1, 1) when the scene is instanced. To set the Control's scale when it's instanced, wait for one frame using yield(get_tree(), "idle_frame") then set its godot.Control.rectScale property.

The size of the node's bounding rectangle, in pixels. godot.Container nodes update this property automatically.

Tells the parent godot.Container nodes how they should resize and place the node on the X axis. Use one of the godot.Control_SizeFlags constants to change the flags. See the constants to learn what each does.

If the node and at least one of its neighbours uses the godot.Control_SizeFlags.expand size flag, the parent godot.Container will let it take more or less space depending on this property. If this node has a stretch ratio of 2 and its neighbour a ratio of 1, this node will take two thirds of the available space.

Tells the parent godot.Container nodes how they should resize and place the node on the Y axis. Use one of the godot.Control_SizeFlags constants to change the flags. See the constants to learn what each does.

Changing this property replaces the current godot.Theme resource this node and all its godot.Control children use.

The rendering layers in which this godot.CanvasItem responds to godot.Light2D nodes.

The material applied to textures on this godot.CanvasItem.

The color applied to textures on this godot.CanvasItem.

draw signal.

hide signal.

item_rect_changed signal.

visibility_changed signal.

The color applied to textures on this godot.CanvasItem. This is not inherited by children godot.CanvasItems.

If true, the object draws behind its parent.

If true, the object draws on top of its parent.

If true, the parent godot.CanvasItem's godot.CanvasItem.material property is used as this one's material.

If true, this godot.CanvasItem is drawn. The node is only visible if all of its antecedents are visible as well (in other words, godot.CanvasItem.isVisibleInTree must return true).

Note: For controls that inherit godot.Popup, the correct way to make them visible is to call one of the multiple popup*() functions instead.

The override to the default godot.MultiplayerAPI. Set to null to use the default godot.SceneTree one.

If a scene is instantiated from a file, its topmost node contains the absolute file path from which it was loaded in godot.Node.filename (e.g. res://levels/1.tscn). Otherwise, godot.Node.filename is set to an empty string.

The godot.MultiplayerAPI instance associated with this node. Either the godot.Node.customMultiplayer, or the default SceneTree one (if inside tree).

The name of the node. This name is unique among the siblings (other child nodes from the same parent). When set to an existing name, the node will be automatically renamed.

Note: Auto-generated names might include the @ character, which is reserved for unique names when using godot.Node.addChild. When setting the name manually, any @ will be removed.

ready signal.

renamed signal.

tree_entered signal.

tree_exited signal.

tree_exiting signal.

The node owner. A node can have any other node as owner (as long as it is a valid parent, grandparent, etc. ascending in the tree). When saving a node (using godot.PackedScene), all the nodes it owns will be saved with it. This allows for the creation of complex godot.SceneTrees, with instancing and subinstancing.

Note: If you want a child to be persisted to a godot.PackedScene, you must set godot.Node.owner in addition to calling godot.Node.addChild. This is typically relevant for [https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.4/tutorials/misc/running_code_in_the_editor.html](tool scripts) and [https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.4/tutorials/plugins/editor/index.html](editor plugins). If godot.Node.addChild is called without setting godot.Node.owner, the newly added godot.Node will not be visible in the scene tree, though it will be visible in the 2D/3D view.

Pause mode. How the node will behave if the godot.SceneTree is paused.

The node's priority in the execution order of the enabled processing callbacks (i.e. godot.Node.notificationProcess, godot.Node.notificationPhysicsProcess and their internal counterparts). Nodes whose process priority value is lower will have their processing callbacks executed first.

Gets a new godot.DynamicGodotObject associated with this instance.

The pointer to the native instance of this godot.Object.

script_changed signal.

Fit a child control in a given rect. This is mainly a helper for creating custom container classes.

Queue resort of the contained children. This is called automatically anyway, but can be called upon request.

Virtual method to be implemented by the user. Returns whether godot.Control._GuiInput should not be called for children controls outside this control's rectangle. Input will be clipped to the Rect of this godot.Control. Similar to godot.Control.rectClipContent, but doesn't affect visibility.

If not overridden, defaults to false.

Virtual method to be implemented by the user. Returns the minimum size for this control. Alternative to godot.Control.rectMinSize for controlling minimum size via code. The actual minimum size will be the max value of these two (in each axis separately).

If not overridden, defaults to Vector2.ZERO.

Virtual method to be implemented by the user. Use this method to process and accept inputs on UI elements. See godot.Control.acceptEvent.

Example: clicking a control.

func _gui_input(event):
if event is InputEventMouseButton:
if event.button_index == BUTTON_LEFT and event.pressed:
print("I've been clicked D:")

The event won't trigger if:

• clicking outside the control (see godot.Control.hasPoint);

• control has godot.Control.mouseFilter set to godot.Control_MouseFilterEnum.ignore;

• control is obstructed by another godot.Control on top of it, which doesn't have godot.Control.mouseFilter set to godot.Control_MouseFilterEnum.ignore;

• control's parent has godot.Control.mouseFilter set to godot.Control_MouseFilterEnum.stop or has accepted the event;

• it happens outside the parent's rectangle and the parent has either godot.Control.rectClipContent or godot.Control._ClipsInput enabled.

Note: Event position is relative to the control origin.

Virtual method to be implemented by the user. Returns a godot.Control node that should be used as a tooltip instead of the default one. The for_text includes the contents of the godot.Control.hintTooltip property.

The returned node must be of type godot.Control or Control-derived. It can have child nodes of any type. It is freed when the tooltip disappears, so make sure you always provide a new instance (if you want to use a pre-existing node from your scene tree, you can duplicate it and pass the duplicated instance). When null or a non-Control node is returned, the default tooltip will be used instead.

The returned node will be added as child to a godot.PopupPanel, so you should only provide the contents of that panel. That godot.PopupPanel can be themed using godot.Theme.setStylebox for the type "TooltipPanel" (see godot.Control.hintTooltip for an example).

Note: The tooltip is shrunk to minimal size. If you want to ensure it's fully visible, you might want to set its godot.Control.rectMinSize to some non-zero value.

Example of usage with a custom-constructed node:

func _make_custom_tooltip(for_text):
var label = Label.new()
label.text = for_text
return label

Example of usage with a custom scene instance:

func _make_custom_tooltip(for_text):
var tooltip = preload("res://SomeTooltipScene.tscn").instance()
tooltip.get_node("Label").text = for_text
return tooltip

Marks an input event as handled. Once you accept an input event, it stops propagating, even to nodes listening to godot.Node._UnhandledInput or godot.Node._UnhandledKeyInput.

Creates a local override for a theme godot.Color with the specified name. Local overrides always take precedence when fetching theme items for the control. An override cannot be removed, but it can be overridden with the corresponding default value.

See also godot.Control.getColor.

Example of overriding a label's color and resetting it later:

# Given the child Label node "MyLabel", override its font color with a custom value.
$MyLabel.add_color_override("font_color", Color(1, 0.5, 0))
# Reset the font color of the child label.
$MyLabel.add_color_override("font_color", get_color("font_color", "Label"))

Creates a local override for a theme constant with the specified name. Local overrides always take precedence when fetching theme items for the control. An override cannot be removed, but it can be overridden with the corresponding default value.

See also godot.Control.getConstant.

Creates a local override for a theme godot.Font with the specified name. Local overrides always take precedence when fetching theme items for the control. An override can be removed by assigning it a null value.

See also godot.Control.getFont.

Creates a local override for a theme icon with the specified name. Local overrides always take precedence when fetching theme items for the control. An override can be removed by assigning it a null value.

See also godot.Control.getIcon.

Creates a local override for a theme shader with the specified name. Local overrides always take precedence when fetching theme items for the control. An override can be removed by assigning it a null value.

Creates a local override for a theme godot.StyleBox with the specified name. Local overrides always take precedence when fetching theme items for the control. An override can be removed by assigning it a null value.

See also godot.Control.getStylebox.

Example of modifying a property in a StyleBox by duplicating it:

# The snippet below assumes the child node MyButton has a StyleBoxFlat assigned.
# Resources are shared across instances, so we need to duplicate it
# to avoid modifying the appearance of all other buttons.
var new_stylebox_normal = $MyButton.get_stylebox("normal").duplicate()
new_stylebox_normal.border_width_top = 3
new_stylebox_normal.border_color = Color(0, 1, 0.5)
$MyButton.add_stylebox_override("normal", new_stylebox_normal)
# Remove the stylebox override.
$MyButton.add_stylebox_override("normal", null)

Godot calls this method to test if data from a control's godot.Control.getDragData can be dropped at position. position is local to this control.

This method should only be used to test the data. Process the data in godot.Control.dropData.

func can_drop_data(position, data):
# Check position if it is relevant to you
# Otherwise, just check data
return typeof(data) == TYPE_DICTIONARY and data.has("expected")

Godot calls this method to pass you the data from a control's godot.Control.getDragData result. Godot first calls godot.Control.canDropData to test if data is allowed to drop at position where position is local to this control.

func can_drop_data(position, data):
return typeof(data) == TYPE_DICTIONARY and data.has("color")

func drop_data(position, data):
color = data["color"]

Finds the next (below in the tree) godot.Control that can receive the focus.

Finds the previous (above in the tree) godot.Control that can receive the focus.

Forces drag and bypasses godot.Control.getDragData and godot.Control.setDragPreview by passing data and preview. Drag will start even if the mouse is neither over nor pressed on this control.

The methods godot.Control.canDropData and godot.Control.dropData must be implemented on controls that want to receive drop data.

Returns the anchor identified by margin constant from godot.Margin enum. A getter method for godot.Control.anchorBottom, godot.Control.anchorLeft, godot.Control.anchorRight and godot.Control.anchorTop.

Returns godot.Control.marginLeft and godot.Control.marginTop. See also godot.Control.rectPosition.

Returns a godot.Color from the first matching godot.Theme in the tree if that godot.Theme has a color item with the specified name and theme_type. If theme_type is omitted the class name of the current control is used as the type. If the type is a class name its parent classes are also checked, in order of inheritance.

For the current control its local overrides are considered first (see godot.Control.addColorOverride), then its assigned godot.Control.theme. After the current control, each parent control and its assigned godot.Control.theme are considered; controls without a godot.Control.theme assigned are skipped. If no matching godot.Theme is found in the tree, a custom project godot.Theme (see ) and the default godot.Theme are used.

func _ready():
# Get the font color defined for the current Control's class, if it exists.
modulate = get_color("font_color")
# Get the font color defined for the Button class.
modulate = get_color("font_color", "Button")

Returns combined minimum size from godot.Control.rectMinSize and godot.Control.getMinimumSize.

Returns a constant from the first matching godot.Theme in the tree if that godot.Theme has a constant item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns the mouse cursor shape the control displays on mouse hover. See godot.Control_CursorShape.

Parameters:

Godot calls this method to get data that can be dragged and dropped onto controls that expect drop data. Returns null if there is no data to drag. Controls that want to receive drop data should implement godot.Control.canDropData and godot.Control.dropData. position is local to this control. Drag may be forced with godot.Control.forceDrag.

A preview that will follow the mouse that should represent the data can be set with godot.Control.setDragPreview. A good time to set the preview is in this method.

func get_drag_data(position):
var mydata = make_data()
set_drag_preview(make_preview(mydata))
return mydata

Returns godot.Control.marginRight and godot.Control.marginBottom.

Returns the focus neighbour identified by margin constant from godot.Margin enum. A getter method for godot.Control.focusNeighbourBottom, godot.Control.focusNeighbourLeft, godot.Control.focusNeighbourRight and godot.Control.focusNeighbourTop.

Returns the control that has the keyboard focus or null if none.

Returns a godot.Font from the first matching godot.Theme in the tree if that godot.Theme has a font item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns the position and size of the control relative to the top-left corner of the screen. See godot.Control.rectPosition and godot.Control.rectSize.

Returns an icon from the first matching godot.Theme in the tree if that godot.Theme has an icon item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns the anchor identified by margin constant from godot.Margin enum. A getter method for godot.Control.marginBottom, godot.Control.marginLeft, godot.Control.marginRight and godot.Control.marginTop.

Returns the minimum size for this control. See godot.Control.rectMinSize.

Returns the width/height occupied in the parent control.

Returns the parent control node.

Returns the position and size of the control relative to the top-left corner of the parent Control. See godot.Control.rectPosition and godot.Control.rectSize.

Returns the rotation (in radians).

Returns a godot.StyleBox from the first matching godot.Theme in the tree if that godot.Theme has a stylebox item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns the default font from the first matching godot.Theme in the tree if that godot.Theme has a valid godot.Theme.defaultFont value.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns the tooltip, which will appear when the cursor is resting over this control. See godot.Control.hintTooltip.

Parameters:

Creates an godot.InputEventMouseButton that attempts to click the control. If the event is received, the control acquires focus.

func _process(delta):
grab_click_focus() #when clicking another Control node, this node will be clicked instead

Steal the focus from another control and become the focused control (see godot.Control.focusMode).

Returns true if there is a matching godot.Theme in the tree that has a color item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns true if there is a local override for a theme godot.Color with the specified name in this godot.Control node.

See godot.Control.addColorOverride.

Returns true if there is a matching godot.Theme in the tree that has a constant item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns true if there is a local override for a theme constant with the specified name in this godot.Control node.

See godot.Control.addConstantOverride.

Returns true if this is the current focused control. See godot.Control.focusMode.

Returns true if there is a matching godot.Theme in the tree that has a font item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns true if there is a local override for a theme godot.Font with the specified name in this godot.Control node.

See godot.Control.addFontOverride.

Returns true if there is a matching godot.Theme in the tree that has an icon item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns true if there is a local override for a theme icon with the specified name in this godot.Control node.

See godot.Control.addIconOverride.

Virtual method to be implemented by the user. Returns whether the given point is inside this control.

If not overridden, default behavior is checking if the point is within control's Rect.

Note: If you want to check if a point is inside the control, you can use get_rect().has_point(point).

Returns true if there is a local override for a theme shader with the specified name in this godot.Control node.

See godot.Control.addShaderOverride.

Returns true if there is a matching godot.Theme in the tree that has a stylebox item with the specified name and theme_type.

See godot.Control.getColor for details.

Returns true if there is a local override for a theme godot.StyleBox with the specified name in this godot.Control node.

See godot.Control.addStyleboxOverride.

Invalidates the size cache in this node and in parent nodes up to toplevel. Intended to be used with godot.Control.getMinimumSize when the return value is changed. Setting godot.Control.rectMinSize directly calls this method automatically.

Give up the focus. No other control will be able to receive keyboard input.

Sets the anchor identified by margin constant from godot.Margin enum to value anchor. A setter method for godot.Control.anchorBottom, godot.Control.anchorLeft, godot.Control.anchorRight and godot.Control.anchorTop.

If keep_margin is true, margins aren't updated after this operation.

If push_opposite_anchor is true and the opposite anchor overlaps this anchor, the opposite one will have its value overridden. For example, when setting left anchor to 1 and the right anchor has value of 0.5, the right anchor will also get value of 1. If push_opposite_anchor was false, the left anchor would get value 0.5.

Works the same as godot.Control.setAnchor, but instead of keep_margin argument and automatic update of margin, it allows to set the margin offset yourself (see godot.Control.setMargin).

Sets both anchor preset and margin preset. See godot.Control.setAnchorsPreset and godot.Control.setMarginsPreset.

Sets the anchors to a preset from godot.Control_LayoutPreset enum. This is the code equivalent to using the Layout menu in the 2D editor.

If keep_margins is true, control's position will also be updated.

Sets godot.Control.marginLeft and godot.Control.marginTop at the same time. Equivalent of changing godot.Control.rectPosition.

Forwards the handling of this control's drag and drop to target control.

Forwarding can be implemented in the target control similar to the methods godot.Control.getDragData, godot.Control.canDropData, and godot.Control.dropData but with two differences:

1. The function name must be suffixed with _fw

2. The function must take an extra argument that is the control doing the forwarding

# ThisControl.gd
extends Control
func _ready():
set_drag_forwarding(target_control)

# TargetControl.gd
extends Control
func can_drop_data_fw(position, data, from_control):
return true

func drop_data_fw(position, data, from_control):
my_handle_data(data)

func get_drag_data_fw(position, from_control):
set_drag_preview(my_preview)
return my_data()

Shows the given control at the mouse pointer. A good time to call this method is in godot.Control.getDragData. The control must not be in the scene tree. You should not free the control, and you should not keep a reference to the control beyond the duration of the drag. It will be deleted automatically after the drag has ended.

export (Color, RGBA) var color = Color(1, 0, 0, 1)

func get_drag_data(position):
# Use a control that is not in the tree
var cpb = ColorPickerButton.new()
cpb.color = color
cpb.rect_size = Vector2(50, 50)
set_drag_preview(cpb)
return color

Sets godot.Control.marginRight and godot.Control.marginBottom at the same time.

Sets the anchor identified by margin constant from godot.Margin enum to godot.Control at neighbor node path. A setter method for godot.Control.focusNeighbourBottom, godot.Control.focusNeighbourLeft, godot.Control.focusNeighbourRight and godot.Control.focusNeighbourTop.

Sets the godot.Control.rectGlobalPosition to given position.

If keep_margins is true, control's anchors will be updated instead of margins.

Sets the margin identified by margin constant from godot.Margin enum to given offset. A setter method for godot.Control.marginBottom, godot.Control.marginLeft, godot.Control.marginRight and godot.Control.marginTop.

Sets the margins to a preset from godot.Control_LayoutPreset enum. This is the code equivalent to using the Layout menu in the 2D editor.

Use parameter resize_mode with constants from godot.Control_LayoutPresetMode to better determine the resulting size of the godot.Control. Constant size will be ignored if used with presets that change size, e.g. PRESET_LEFT_WIDE.

Use parameter margin to determine the gap between the godot.Control and the edges.

Sets the godot.Control.rectPosition to given position.

If keep_margins is true, control's anchors will be updated instead of margins.

Sets the rotation (in radians).

Sets the size (see godot.Control.rectSize).

If keep_margins is true, control's anchors will be updated instead of margins.

Displays a control as modal. Control must be a subwindow. Modal controls capture the input signals until closed or the area outside them is accessed. When a modal control loses focus, or the ESC key is pressed, they automatically hide. Modal controls are used extensively for popup dialogs and menus.

If exclusive is true, other controls will not receive input and clicking outside this control will not close it.

Moves the mouse cursor to to_position, relative to godot.Control.rectPosition of this godot.Control.

Overridable function called by the engine (if defined) to draw the canvas item.

Draws a unfilled arc between the given angles. The larger the value of point_count, the smoother the curve. See also godot.CanvasItem.drawCircle.

Note: Line drawing is not accelerated by batching if antialiased is true.

Note: Due to how it works, built-in antialiasing will not look correct for translucent lines and may not work on certain platforms. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedRegularPolygon2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing. 2D batching is also still supported with those antialiased lines.

Draws a string character using a custom font. Returns the advance, depending on the character width and kerning with an optional next character.

Parameters:

Draws a colored, filled circle. See also godot.CanvasItem.drawArc, godot.CanvasItem.drawPolyline and godot.CanvasItem.drawPolygon.

Note: Built-in antialiasing is not provided for godot.CanvasItem.drawCircle. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedRegularPolygon2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing.

Draws a colored polygon of any amount of points, convex or concave. Unlike godot.CanvasItem.drawPolygon, a single color must be specified for the whole polygon.

Note: Due to how it works, built-in antialiasing will not look correct for translucent polygons and may not work on certain platforms. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedPolygon2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing.

Parameters:

Draws a line from a 2D point to another, with a given color and width. It can be optionally antialiased. See also godot.CanvasItem.drawMultiline and godot.CanvasItem.drawPolyline.

Note: Line drawing is not accelerated by batching if antialiased is true.

Note: Due to how it works, built-in antialiasing will not look correct for translucent lines and may not work on certain platforms. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedLine2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing. 2D batching is also still supported with those antialiased lines.

Draws a godot.Mesh in 2D, using the provided texture. See godot.MeshInstance2D for related documentation.

Parameters:

Draws multiple disconnected lines with a uniform color. When drawing large amounts of lines, this is faster than using individual godot.CanvasItem.drawLine calls. To draw interconnected lines, use godot.CanvasItem.drawPolyline instead.

Note: width and antialiased are currently not implemented and have no effect. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedLine2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing. 2D batching is also still supported with those antialiased lines.

Draws multiple disconnected lines with a uniform width and segment-by-segment coloring. Colors assigned to line segments match by index between points and colors. When drawing large amounts of lines, this is faster than using individual godot.CanvasItem.drawLine calls. To draw interconnected lines, use godot.CanvasItem.drawPolylineColors instead.

Note: width and antialiased are currently not implemented and have no effect. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedLine2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing. 2D batching is also still supported with those antialiased lines.

Draws a godot.MultiMesh in 2D with the provided texture. See godot.MultiMeshInstance2D for related documentation.

Draws a solid polygon of any amount of points, convex or concave. Unlike godot.CanvasItem.drawColoredPolygon, each point's color can be changed individually. See also godot.CanvasItem.drawPolyline and godot.CanvasItem.drawPolylineColors.

Note: Due to how it works, built-in antialiasing will not look correct for translucent polygons and may not work on certain platforms. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedPolygon2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing.

Parameters:

Draws interconnected line segments with a uniform color and width and optional antialiasing. When drawing large amounts of lines, this is faster than using individual godot.CanvasItem.drawLine calls. To draw disconnected lines, use godot.CanvasItem.drawMultiline instead. See also godot.CanvasItem.drawPolygon.

Note: Due to how it works, built-in antialiasing will not look correct for translucent polygons and may not work on certain platforms. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedPolygon2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing.

Draws interconnected line segments with a uniform width and segment-by-segment coloring, and optional antialiasing. Colors assigned to line segments match by index between points and colors. When drawing large amounts of lines, this is faster than using individual godot.CanvasItem.drawLine calls. To draw disconnected lines, use godot.CanvasItem.drawMultilineColors instead.

That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing.

Draws a custom primitive. 1 point for a point, 2 points for a line, 3 points for a triangle, and 4 points for a quad. If 0 points or more than 4 points are specified, nothing will be drawn and an error message will be printed. See also godot.CanvasItem.drawLine, godot.CanvasItem.drawPolyline, godot.CanvasItem.drawPolygon, and godot.CanvasItem.drawRect.

Draws a rectangle. If filled is true, the rectangle will be filled with the color specified. If filled is false, the rectangle will be drawn as a stroke with the color and width specified. If antialiased is true, the lines will attempt to perform antialiasing using OpenGL line smoothing.

Note: width and antialiased are only effective if filled is false.

Note: Due to how it works, built-in antialiasing will not look correct for translucent polygons and may not work on certain platforms. As a workaround, install the [https://github.com/godot-extended-libraries/godot-antialiased-line2d](Antialiased Line2D) add-on then create an AntialiasedPolygon2D node. That node relies on a texture with custom mipmaps to perform antialiasing.

Sets a custom transform for drawing via components. Anything drawn afterwards will be transformed by this.

Sets a custom transform for drawing via matrix. Anything drawn afterwards will be transformed by this.

Draws text using the specified font at the position (bottom-left corner using the baseline of the font). The text will have its color multiplied by modulate. If clip_w is greater than or equal to 0, the text will be clipped if it exceeds the specified width.

Example using the default project font:

# If using this method in a script that redraws constantly, move the
# `default_font` declaration to a member variable assigned in `_ready()`
# so the Control is only created once.
var default_font = Control.new().get_font("font")
draw_string(default_font, Vector2(64, 64), "Hello world")

See also godot.Font.draw.

Parameters:

Draws a styled rectangle.

Draws a texture at a given position.

Parameters:

Draws a textured rectangle at a given position, optionally modulated by a color. If transpose is true, the texture will have its X and Y coordinates swapped.

Parameters:

Draws a textured rectangle region at a given position, optionally modulated by a color. If transpose is true, the texture will have its X and Y coordinates swapped.

Parameters:

Forces the transform to update. Transform changes in physics are not instant for performance reasons. Transforms are accumulated and then set. Use this if you need an up-to-date transform when doing physics operations.

Returns the godot.RID of the godot.World2D canvas where this item is in.

Returns the canvas item RID used by godot.VisualServer for this item.

Returns the transform matrix of this item's canvas.

Returns the global position of the mouse.

Returns the global transform matrix of this item.

Returns the global transform matrix of this item in relation to the canvas.

Returns the mouse position relative to this item's position.

Returns the transform matrix of this item.

Returns the viewport's boundaries as a godot.Rect2.

Returns this item's transform in relation to the viewport.

Returns the godot.World2D where this item is in.

Hide the godot.CanvasItem if it's currently visible. This is equivalent to setting godot.CanvasItem.visible to false.

Returns true if local transform notifications are communicated to children.

Returns true if the node is set as top-level. See godot.CanvasItem.setAsToplevel.

Returns true if global transform notifications are communicated to children.

Returns true if the node is present in the godot.SceneTree, its godot.CanvasItem.visible property is true and all its antecedents are also visible. If any antecedent is hidden, this node will not be visible in the scene tree.

Assigns screen_point as this node's new local transform.

Transformations issued by event's inputs are applied in local space instead of global space.

If enable is true, this godot.CanvasItem will not inherit its transform from parent godot.CanvasItems. Its draw order will also be changed to make it draw on top of other godot.CanvasItems that are not set as top-level. The godot.CanvasItem will effectively act as if it was placed as a child of a bare godot.Node. See also godot.CanvasItem.isSetAsToplevel.

If enable is true, children will be updated with local transform data.

If enable is true, children will be updated with global transform data.

Show the godot.CanvasItem if it's currently hidden. This is equivalent to setting godot.CanvasItem.visible to true. For controls that inherit godot.Popup, the correct way to make them visible is to call one of the multiple popup*() functions instead.

Queue the godot.CanvasItem for update. godot.CanvasItem.notificationDraw will be called on idle time to request redraw.

Called when the node enters the godot.SceneTree (e.g. upon instancing, scene changing, or after calling godot.Node.addChild in a script). If the node has children, its godot.Node._EnterTree callback will be called first, and then that of the children.

Corresponds to the godot.Node.notificationEnterTree notification in godot.Object._Notification.

Called when the node is about to leave the godot.SceneTree (e.g. upon freeing, scene changing, or after calling godot.Node.removeChild in a script). If the node has children, its godot.Node._ExitTree callback will be called last, after all its children have left the tree.

Corresponds to the godot.Node.notificationExitTree notification in godot.Object._Notification and signal tree_exiting. To get notified when the node has already left the active tree, connect to the tree_exited.

The string returned from this method is displayed as a warning in the Scene Dock if the script that overrides it is a tool script.

Returning an empty string produces no warning.

Call godot.Node.updateConfigurationWarning when the warning needs to be updated for this node.

Called when there is an input event. The input event propagates up through the node tree until a node consumes it.

It is only called if input processing is enabled, which is done automatically if this method is overridden, and can be toggled with godot.Node.setProcessInput.

To consume the input event and stop it propagating further to other nodes, godot.SceneTree.setInputAsHandled can be called.

For gameplay input, godot.Node._UnhandledInput and godot.Node._UnhandledKeyInput are usually a better fit as they allow the GUI to intercept the events first.

Note: This method is only called if the node is present in the scene tree (i.e. if it's not orphan).

Called during the physics processing step of the main loop. Physics processing means that the frame rate is synced to the physics, i.e. the delta variable should be constant. delta is in seconds.

It is only called if physics processing is enabled, which is done automatically if this method is overridden, and can be toggled with godot.Node.setPhysicsProcess.

Corresponds to the godot.Node.notificationPhysicsProcess notification in godot.Object._Notification.

Note: This method is only called if the node is present in the scene tree (i.e. if it's not orphan).

Called during the processing step of the main loop. Processing happens at every frame and as fast as possible, so the delta time since the previous frame is not constant. delta is in seconds.

It is only called if processing is enabled, which is done automatically if this method is overridden, and can be toggled with godot.Node.setProcess.

Corresponds to the godot.Node.notificationProcess notification in godot.Object._Notification.

Note: This method is only called if the node is present in the scene tree (i.e. if it's not orphan).

Called when the node is "ready", i.e. when both the node and its children have entered the scene tree. If the node has children, their godot.Node._Ready callbacks get triggered first, and the parent node will receive the ready notification afterwards.

Corresponds to the godot.Node.notificationReady notification in godot.Object._Notification. See also the onready keyword for variables.

Usually used for initialization. For even earlier initialization, may be used. See also godot.Node._EnterTree.

Note: godot.Node._Ready may be called only once for each node. After removing a node from the scene tree and adding again, _ready will not be called for the second time. This can be bypassed with requesting another call with godot.Node.requestReady, which may be called anywhere before adding the node again.

Called when an godot.InputEvent hasn't been consumed by godot.Node._Input or any GUI. The input event propagates up through the node tree until a node consumes it.

It is only called if unhandled input processing is enabled, which is done automatically if this method is overridden, and can be toggled with godot.Node.setProcessUnhandledInput.

To consume the input event and stop it propagating further to other nodes, godot.SceneTree.setInputAsHandled can be called.

For gameplay input, this and godot.Node._UnhandledKeyInput are usually a better fit than godot.Node._Input as they allow the GUI to intercept the events first.

Note: This method is only called if the node is present in the scene tree (i.e. if it's not orphan).

Called when an godot.InputEventKey hasn't been consumed by godot.Node._Input or any GUI. The input event propagates up through the node tree until a node consumes it.

It is only called if unhandled key input processing is enabled, which is done automatically if this method is overridden, and can be toggled with godot.Node.setProcessUnhandledKeyInput.

To consume the input event and stop it propagating further to other nodes, godot.SceneTree.setInputAsHandled can be called.

For gameplay input, this and godot.Node._UnhandledInput are usually a better fit than godot.Node._Input as they allow the GUI to intercept the events first.

Note: This method is only called if the node is present in the scene tree (i.e. if it's not orphan).

Adds a child node. Nodes can have any number of children, but every child must have a unique name. Child nodes are automatically deleted when the parent node is deleted, so an entire scene can be removed by deleting its topmost node.

If legible_unique_name is true, the child node will have a human-readable name based on the name of the node being instanced instead of its type.

Note: If the child node already has a parent, the function will fail. Use godot.Node.removeChild first to remove the node from its current parent. For example:

if child_node.get_parent():
child_node.get_parent().remove_child(child_node)
add_child(child_node)

Note: If you want a child to be persisted to a godot.PackedScene, you must set godot.Node.owner in addition to calling godot.Node.addChild. This is typically relevant for [https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.4/tutorials/misc/running_code_in_the_editor.html](tool scripts) and [https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.4/tutorials/plugins/editor/index.html](editor plugins). If godot.Node.addChild is called without setting godot.Node.owner, the newly added godot.Node will not be visible in the scene tree, though it will be visible in the 2D/3D view.

Adds child_node as a child. The child is placed below the given node in the list of children.

If legible_unique_name is true, the child node will have a human-readable name based on the name of the node being instanced instead of its type.

Adds the node to a group. Groups are helpers to name and organize a subset of nodes, for example "enemies" or "collectables". A node can be in any number of groups. Nodes can be assigned a group at any time, but will not be added until they are inside the scene tree (see godot.Node.isInsideTree). See notes in the description, and the group methods in godot.SceneTree.

The persistent option is used when packing node to godot.PackedScene and saving to file. Non-persistent groups aren't stored.

Note: For performance reasons, the order of node groups is not guaranteed. The order of node groups should not be relied upon as it can vary across project runs.

Returns true if the node can process while the scene tree is paused (see godot.Node.pauseMode). Always returns true if the scene tree is not paused, and false if the node is not in the tree.

Duplicates the node, returning a new node.

You can fine-tune the behavior using the flags (see godot.Node_DuplicateFlags).

Note: It will not work properly if the node contains a script with constructor arguments (i.e. needs to supply arguments to method). In that case, the node will be duplicated without a script.

Finds a descendant of this node whose name matches mask as in String.match (i.e. case-sensitive, but "*" matches zero or more characters and "?" matches any single character except "."). Returns null if no matching godot.Node is found.

Note: It does not match against the full path, just against individual node names.

If owned is true, this method only finds nodes whose owner is this node. This is especially important for scenes instantiated through a script, because those scenes don't have an owner.

Note: As this method walks through all the descendants of the node, it is the slowest way to get a reference to another node. Whenever possible, consider using godot.Node.getNode instead. To avoid using godot.Node.findNode too often, consider caching the node reference into a variable.

Finds the first parent of the current node whose name matches mask as in String.match (i.e. case-sensitive, but "*" matches zero or more characters and "?" matches any single character except ".").

Note: It does not match against the full path, just against individual node names.

Note: As this method walks upwards in the scene tree, it can be slow in large, deeply nested scene trees. Whenever possible, consider using godot.Node.getNode instead. To avoid using godot.Node.findParent too often, consider caching the node reference into a variable.

Returns a child node by its index (see godot.Node.getChildCount). This method is often used for iterating all children of a node.

To access a child node via its name, use godot.Node.getNode.

Returns the number of child nodes.

Returns an array of references to node's children.

Returns an array listing the groups that the node is a member of.

Note: For performance reasons, the order of node groups is not guaranteed. The order of node groups should not be relied upon as it can vary across project runs.

Note: The engine uses some group names internally (all starting with an underscore). To avoid conflicts with internal groups, do not add custom groups whose name starts with an underscore. To exclude internal groups while looping over godot.Node.getGroups, use the following snippet:

# Stores the node's non-internal groups only (as an array of Strings).
var non_internal_groups = []
for group in get_groups():
if not group.begins_with("_"):
non_internal_groups.push_back(group)

Returns the node's index, i.e. its position among the siblings of its parent.

Returns the peer ID of the network master for this node. See godot.Node.setNetworkMaster.

Fetches a node. The godot.NodePath can be either a relative path (from the current node) or an absolute path (in the scene tree) to a node. If the path does not exist, a null instance is returned and an error is logged. Attempts to access methods on the return value will result in an "Attempt to call <method> on a null instance." error.

Note: Fetching absolute paths only works when the node is inside the scene tree (see godot.Node.isInsideTree).

Example: Assume your current node is Character and the following tree:

/root
/root/Character
/root/Character/Sword
/root/Character/Backpack/Dagger
/root/MyGame
/root/Swamp/Alligator
/root/Swamp/Mosquito
/root/Swamp/Goblin

Possible paths are:

get_node("Sword")
get_node("Backpack/Dagger")
get_node("../Swamp/Alligator")
get_node("/root/MyGame")

Fetches a node and one of its resources as specified by the godot.NodePath's subname (e.g. Area2D/CollisionShape2D:shape). If several nested resources are specified in the godot.NodePath, the last one will be fetched.

The return value is an array of size 3: the first index points to the godot.Node (or null if not found), the second index points to the godot.Resource (or null if not found), and the third index is the remaining godot.NodePath, if any.

For example, assuming that Area2D/CollisionShape2D is a valid node and that its shape property has been assigned a godot.RectangleShape2D resource, one could have this kind of output:

print(get_node_and_resource("Area2D/CollisionShape2D")) # [[CollisionShape2D:1161], Null, ]
print(get_node_and_resource("Area2D/CollisionShape2D:shape")) # [[CollisionShape2D:1161], [RectangleShape2D:1156], ]
print(get_node_and_resource("Area2D/CollisionShape2D:shape:extents")) # [[CollisionShape2D:1161], [RectangleShape2D:1156], :extents]

Similar to godot.Node.getNode, but does not log an error if path does not point to a valid godot.Node.

Returns the parent node of the current node, or a null instance if the node lacks a parent.

Returns the absolute path of the current node. This only works if the current node is inside the scene tree (see godot.Node.isInsideTree).

Returns the relative godot.NodePath from this node to the specified node. Both nodes must be in the same scene or the function will fail.

Returns the time elapsed (in seconds) since the last physics-bound frame (see godot.Node._PhysicsProcess). This is always a constant value in physics processing unless the frames per second is changed via godot.Engine.iterationsPerSecond.

Returns the node's order in the scene tree branch. For example, if called on the first child node the position is 0.

Returns the time elapsed (in seconds) since the last process callback. This value may vary from frame to frame.

Returns true if this is an instance load placeholder. See godot.InstancePlaceholder.

Returns the godot.SceneTree that contains this node.

Returns the node's godot.Viewport.

Returns true if the node that the godot.NodePath points to exists.

Returns true if the godot.NodePath points to a valid node and its subname points to a valid resource, e.g. Area2D/CollisionShape2D:shape. Properties with a non-godot.Resource type (e.g. nodes or primitive math types) are not considered resources.

Returns true if the given node is a direct or indirect child of the current node.

Returns true if the node is folded (collapsed) in the Scene dock.

Returns true if the given node occurs later in the scene hierarchy than the current node.

Returns true if this node is in the specified group. See notes in the description, and the group methods in godot.SceneTree.

Returns true if this node is currently inside a godot.SceneTree.

Returns true if the local system is the master of this node.

Returns true if physics processing is enabled (see godot.Node.setPhysicsProcess).

Returns true if internal physics processing is enabled (see godot.Node.setPhysicsProcessInternal).

Returns true if processing is enabled (see godot.Node.setProcess).

Returns true if the node is processing input (see godot.Node.setProcessInput).

Returns true if internal processing is enabled (see godot.Node.setProcessInternal).

Returns true if the node is processing unhandled input (see godot.Node.setProcessUnhandledInput).

Returns true if the node is processing unhandled key input (see godot.Node.setProcessUnhandledKeyInput).

Moves a child node to a different position (order) among the other children. Since calls, signals, etc are performed by tree order, changing the order of children nodes may be useful.

Prints all stray nodes (nodes outside the godot.SceneTree). Used for debugging. Works only in debug builds.

Prints the tree to stdout. Used mainly for debugging purposes. This version displays the path relative to the current node, and is good for copy/pasting into the godot.Node.getNode function.

Example output:

TheGame
TheGame/Menu
TheGame/Menu/Label
TheGame/Menu/Camera2D
TheGame/SplashScreen
TheGame/SplashScreen/Camera2D

Similar to godot.Node.printTree, this prints the tree to stdout. This version displays a more graphical representation similar to what is displayed in the scene inspector. It is useful for inspecting larger trees.

Example output:

┖╴TheGame
┠╴Menu
┃  ┠╴Label
┃  ┖╴Camera2D
┖╴SplashScreen
┖╴Camera2D

Calls the given method (if present) with the arguments given in args on this node and recursively on all its children. If the parent_first argument is true, the method will be called on the current node first, then on all its children. If parent_first is false, the children will be called first.

Parameters:

Notifies the current node and all its children recursively by calling godot.Object.notification on all of them.

Queues a node for deletion at the end of the current frame. When deleted, all of its child nodes will be deleted as well. This method ensures it's safe to delete the node, contrary to godot.Object.free. Use godot.Object.isQueuedForDeletion to check whether a node will be deleted at the end of the frame.

Important: If you have a variable pointing to a node, it will not be assigned to null once the node is freed. Instead, it will point to a previously freed instance and you should validate it with @GDScript.is_instance_valid before attempting to call its methods or access its properties.

Moves this node to the bottom of parent node's children hierarchy. This is often useful in GUIs (godot.Control nodes), because their order of drawing depends on their order in the tree. The top Node is drawn first, then any siblings below the top Node in the hierarchy are successively drawn on top of it. After using raise, a Control will be drawn on top of its siblings.

Removes a node and sets all its children as children of the parent node (if it exists). All event subscriptions that pass by the removed node will be unsubscribed.

Removes a child node. The node is NOT deleted and must be deleted manually.

Note: This function may set the godot.Node.owner of the removed Node (or its descendants) to be null, if that godot.Node.owner is no longer a parent or ancestor.

Removes a node from a group. See notes in the description, and the group methods in godot.SceneTree.

Replaces a node in a scene by the given one. Subscriptions that pass through this node will be lost.

Note that the replaced node is not automatically freed, so you either need to keep it in a variable for later use or free it using godot.Object.free.

Requests that _ready be called again. Note that the method won't be called immediately, but is scheduled for when the node is added to the scene tree again (see godot.Node._Ready). _ready is called only for the node which requested it, which means that you need to request ready for each child if you want them to call _ready too (in which case, _ready will be called in the same order as it would normally).

Sends a remote procedure call request for the given method to peers on the network (and locally), optionally sending all additional arguments as arguments to the method called by the RPC. The call request will only be received by nodes with the same godot.NodePath, including the exact same node name. Behaviour depends on the RPC configuration for the given method, see godot.Node.rpcConfig. Methods are not exposed to RPCs by default. See also godot.Node.rset and godot.Node.rsetConfig for properties. Returns null.

Note: You can only safely use RPCs on clients after you received the connected_to_server signal from the godot.SceneTree. You also need to keep track of the connection state, either by the godot.SceneTree signals like server_disconnected or by checking SceneTree.network_peer.get_connection_status() == CONNECTION_CONNECTED.

Changes the RPC mode for the given method to the given mode. See godot.MultiplayerAPI_RPCMode. An alternative is annotating methods and properties with the corresponding keywords (remote, master, puppet, remotesync, mastersync, puppetsync). By default, methods are not exposed to networking (and RPCs). See also godot.Node.rset and godot.Node.rsetConfig for properties.

Sends a godot.Node.rpc to a specific peer identified by peer_id (see godot.NetworkedMultiplayerPeer.setTargetPeer). Returns null.

Sends a godot.Node.rpc using an unreliable protocol. Returns null.

Sends a godot.Node.rpc to a specific peer identified by peer_id using an unreliable protocol (see godot.NetworkedMultiplayerPeer.setTargetPeer). Returns null.

Remotely changes a property's value on other peers (and locally). Behaviour depends on the RPC configuration for the given property, see godot.Node.rsetConfig. See also godot.Node.rpc for RPCs for methods, most information applies to this method as well.

Changes the RPC mode for the given property to the given mode. See godot.MultiplayerAPI_RPCMode. An alternative is annotating methods and properties with the corresponding keywords (remote, master, puppet, remotesync, mastersync, puppetsync). By default, properties are not exposed to networking (and RPCs). See also godot.Node.rpc and godot.Node.rpcConfig for methods.

Remotely changes the property's value on a specific peer identified by peer_id (see godot.NetworkedMultiplayerPeer.setTargetPeer).

Remotely changes the property's value on other peers (and locally) using an unreliable protocol.

Remotely changes property's value on a specific peer identified by peer_id using an unreliable protocol (see godot.NetworkedMultiplayerPeer.setTargetPeer).

Sets the folded state of the node in the Scene dock.

Sets the node's network master to the peer with the given peer ID. The network master is the peer that has authority over the node on the network. Useful in conjunction with the master and puppet keywords. Inherited from the parent node by default, which ultimately defaults to peer ID 1 (the server). If recursive, the given peer is recursively set as the master for all children of this node.

Enables or disables physics (i.e. fixed framerate) processing. When a node is being processed, it will receive a godot.Node.notificationPhysicsProcess at a fixed (usually 60 FPS, see godot.Engine.iterationsPerSecond to change) interval (and the godot.Node._PhysicsProcess callback will be called if exists). Enabled automatically if godot.Node._PhysicsProcess is overridden. Any calls to this before godot.Node._Ready will be ignored.

Enables or disables internal physics for this node. Internal physics processing happens in isolation from the normal godot.Node._PhysicsProcess calls and is used by some nodes internally to guarantee proper functioning even if the node is paused or physics processing is disabled for scripting (godot.Node.setPhysicsProcess). Only useful for advanced uses to manipulate built-in nodes' behavior.

Warning: Built-in Nodes rely on the internal processing for their own logic, so changing this value from your code may lead to unexpected behavior. Script access to this internal logic is provided for specific advanced uses, but is unsafe and not supported.

Enables or disables processing. When a node is being processed, it will receive a godot.Node.notificationProcess on every drawn frame (and the godot.Node._Process callback will be called if exists). Enabled automatically if godot.Node._Process is overridden. Any calls to this before godot.Node._Ready will be ignored.

Enables or disables input processing. This is not required for GUI controls! Enabled automatically if godot.Node._Input is overridden. Any calls to this before godot.Node._Ready will be ignored.

Enables or disabled internal processing for this node. Internal processing happens in isolation from the normal godot.Node._Process calls and is used by some nodes internally to guarantee proper functioning even if the node is paused or processing is disabled for scripting (godot.Node.setProcess). Only useful for advanced uses to manipulate built-in nodes' behavior.

Warning: Built-in Nodes rely on the internal processing for their own logic, so changing this value from your code may lead to unexpected behavior. Script access to this internal logic is provided for specific advanced uses, but is unsafe and not supported.

Enables unhandled input processing. This is not required for GUI controls! It enables the node to receive all input that was not previously handled (usually by a godot.Control). Enabled automatically if godot.Node._UnhandledInput is overridden. Any calls to this before godot.Node._Ready will be ignored.

Enables unhandled key input processing. Enabled automatically if godot.Node._UnhandledKeyInput is overridden. Any calls to this before godot.Node._Ready will be ignored.

Sets whether this is an instance load placeholder. See godot.InstancePlaceholder.

Updates the warning displayed for this node in the Scene Dock.

Use godot.Node._GetConfigurationWarning to setup the warning message to display.

Virtual method which can be overridden to customize the return value of godot.Object.get.

Returns the given property. Returns null if the property does not exist.

Virtual method which can be overridden to customize the return value of godot.Object.getPropertyList.

Returns the object's property list as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries.

Each property's godot.Collections_Dictionary must contain at least name: String and type: int (see godot.Variant_Type) entries. Optionally, it can also include hint: int (see godot.PropertyHint), hint_string: String, and usage: int (see godot.PropertyUsageFlags).

Called whenever the object receives a notification, which is identified in what by a constant. The base godot.Object has two constants godot.Object.notificationPostinitialize and godot.Object.notificationPredelete, but subclasses such as godot.Node define a lot more notifications which are also received by this method.

Virtual method which can be overridden to customize the return value of godot.Object.set.

Sets a property. Returns true if the property exists.

Adds a user-defined signal. Arguments are optional, but can be added as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries, each containing name: String and type: int (see godot.Variant_Type) entries.

Parameters:

Calls the method on the object and returns the result. This method supports a variable number of arguments, so parameters are passed as a comma separated list. Example:

call("set", "position", Vector2(42.0, 0.0))

Note: In C#, the method name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined methods where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Calls the method on the object during idle time. This method supports a variable number of arguments, so parameters are passed as a comma separated list. Example:

call_deferred("set", "position", Vector2(42.0, 0.0))

Note: In C#, the method name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined methods where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Calls the method on the object and returns the result. Contrarily to godot.Object.call, this method does not support a variable number of arguments but expects all parameters to be via a single godot.Collections_Array.

callv("set", [ "position", Vector2(42.0, 0.0) ])

Returns true if the object can translate strings. See godot.Object.setMessageTranslation and godot.Object.tr.

Connects a signal to a method on a target object. Pass optional binds to the call as an godot.Collections_Array of parameters. These parameters will be passed to the method after any parameter used in the call to godot.Object.emitSignal. Use flags to set deferred or one-shot connections. See godot.Object_ConnectFlags constants.

A signal can only be connected once to a method. It will print an error if already connected, unless the signal was connected with godot.Object_ConnectFlags.referenceCounted. To avoid this, first, use godot.Object.isConnected to check for existing connections.

If the target is destroyed in the game's lifecycle, the connection will be lost.

Examples:

connect("pressed", self, "_on_Button_pressed") # BaseButton signal
connect("text_entered", self, "_on_LineEdit_text_entered") # LineEdit signal
connect("hit", self, "_on_Player_hit", [ weapon_type, damage ]) # User-defined signal

An example of the relationship between binds passed to godot.Object.connect and parameters used when calling godot.Object.emitSignal:

connect("hit", self, "_on_Player_hit", [ weapon_type, damage ]) # weapon_type and damage are passed last
emit_signal("hit", "Dark lord", 5) # "Dark lord" and 5 are passed first
func _on_Player_hit(hit_by, level, weapon_type, damage):
print("Hit by %s (lvl %d) with weapon %s for %d damage" % [hit_by, level, weapon_type, damage])

Parameters:

Disconnects a signal from a method on the given target.

If you try to disconnect a connection that does not exist, the method will print an error. Use godot.Object.isConnected to ensure that the connection exists.

Disposes of this godot.Object.

Emits the given signal. The signal must exist, so it should be a built-in signal of this class or one of its parent classes, or a user-defined signal. This method supports a variable number of arguments, so parameters are passed as a comma separated list. Example:

emit_signal("hit", weapon_type, damage)
emit_signal("game_over")

Deletes the object from memory immediately. For godot.Nodes, you may want to use godot.Node.queueFree to queue the node for safe deletion at the end of the current frame.

Important: If you have a variable pointing to an object, it will not be assigned to null once the object is freed. Instead, it will point to a previously freed instance and you should validate it with @GDScript.is_instance_valid before attempting to call its methods or access its properties.

Returns the Variant value of the given property. If the property doesn't exist, this will return null.

Note: In C#, the property name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined properties where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Returns the object's class as a String. See also godot.Object.isClass.

Note: godot.Object.getClass does not take class_name declarations into account. If the object has a class_name defined, the base class name will be returned instead.

Returns an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries with information about signals that are connected to the object.

Each godot.Collections_Dictionary contains three String entries:

• source is a reference to the signal emitter.

• signal_name is the name of the connected signal.

• method_name is the name of the method to which the signal is connected.

Gets the object's property indexed by the given godot.NodePath. The node path should be relative to the current object and can use the colon character (:) to access nested properties. Examples: "position:x" or "material:next_pass:blend_mode".

Note: Even though the method takes godot.NodePath argument, it doesn't support actual paths to godot.Nodes in the scene tree, only colon-separated sub-property paths. For the purpose of nodes, use godot.Node.getNodeAndResource instead.

Returns the object's unique instance ID.

This ID can be saved in godot.EncodedObjectAsID, and can be used to retrieve the object instance with @GDScript.instance_from_id.

Returns the object's metadata entry for the given name.

Returns the object's metadata as a String.

Returns the object's methods and their signatures as an godot.Collections_Array.

Returns the object's property list as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries.

Each property's godot.Collections_Dictionary contain at least name: String and type: int (see godot.Variant_Type) entries. Optionally, it can also include hint: int (see godot.PropertyHint), hint_string: String, and usage: int (see godot.PropertyUsageFlags).

Returns the object's godot.Script instance, or null if none is assigned.

Returns an godot.Collections_Array of connections for the given signal.

Returns the list of signals as an godot.Collections_Array of dictionaries.

Returns true if a metadata entry is found with the given name.

Returns true if the object contains the given method.

Returns true if the given signal exists.

Returns true if the given user-defined signal exists. Only signals added using godot.Object.addUserSignal are taken into account.

Returns true if signal emission blocking is enabled.

Returns true if the object inherits from the given class. See also godot.Object.getClass.

Note: godot.Object.isClass does not take class_name declarations into account. If the object has a class_name defined, godot.Object.isClass will return false for that name.

Returns true if a connection exists for a given signal, target, and method.

Returns true if the godot.Node.queueFree method was called for the object.

Send a given notification to the object, which will also trigger a call to the godot.Object._Notification method of all classes that the object inherits from.

If reversed is true, godot.Object._Notification is called first on the object's own class, and then up to its successive parent classes. If reversed is false, godot.Object._Notification is called first on the highest ancestor (godot.Object itself), and then down to its successive inheriting classes.

Notify the editor that the property list has changed, so that editor plugins can take the new values into account. Does nothing on export builds.

Removes a given entry from the object's metadata. See also godot.Object.setMeta.

Assigns a new value to the given property. If the property does not exist or the given value's type doesn't match, nothing will happen.

Note: In C#, the property name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined properties where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

If set to true, signal emission is blocked.

Assigns a new value to the given property, after the current frame's physics step. This is equivalent to calling godot.Object.set via godot.Object.callDeferred, i.e. call_deferred("set", property, value).

Note: In C#, the property name must be specified as snake_case if it is defined by a built-in Godot node. This doesn't apply to user-defined properties where you should use the same convention as in the C# source (typically PascalCase).

Assigns a new value to the property identified by the godot.NodePath. The node path should be relative to the current object and can use the colon character (:) to access nested properties. Example:

set_indexed("position", Vector2(42, 0))
set_indexed("position:y", -10)
print(position) # (42, -10)

Defines whether the object can translate strings (with calls to godot.Object.tr). Enabled by default.

Adds, changes or removes a given entry in the object's metadata. Metadata are serialized and can take any Variant value.

To remove a given entry from the object's metadata, use godot.Object.removeMeta. Metadata is also removed if its value is set to null. This means you can also use set_meta("name", null) to remove metadata for "name".

Assigns a script to the object. Each object can have a single script assigned to it, which are used to extend its functionality.

If the object already had a script, the previous script instance will be freed and its variables and state will be lost. The new script's method will be called.

Returns a new godot.SignalAwaiter awaiter configured to complete when the instance source emits the signal specified by the signal parameter.

Parameters:

public override void _Ready()
{
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
await ToSignal(GetTree(), "idle_frame");
GD.Print($"Frame {i}");
}
}

Returns:

Converts this godot.Object to a string.

Returns:

Translates a message using translation catalogs configured in the Project Settings.

Only works if message translation is enabled (which it is by default), otherwise it returns the message unchanged. See godot.Object.setMessageTranslation.
