Lesson 5: Spawning the platforms

Minor quibble, I am running Godot 4 beta 3 and I can’t quite figure out how to get the editor to add the _ready() and _process(delta) functions and comments via one click as shown in the video. It could be helpful to know the shortcut to add boilerplate functions like that for folks new to the engine (like myself).

Great series though, I love the pacing and find myself not needing to run at 1,5x like I do with other similar tutorials!

There are two lines that do not work

(“res://scense/platform.tscn”)

new_world.position = Vector2(400, 0)

*preload file (“res://scense/platform.tscn”) does no’t exist. *Missing connected method_on_ready’ for signal ‘ready’ from node ‘World’ to node ‘World’. [ignore] Line 18 (UNUSED PARAMETER): The parameter ‘delta’ is never used in the function ‘_process’. If this is intended, prefix it with an underscore: “_delta’ *Invalid set index ‘position’ (on base. “int”) with value of type 'Vector2”

*0:00:01:0007 0:00:01:0116 The parameter ‘delta’ is never used in the function ‘_process’. If this is intended, prefix it with an underscore: ‘_delta’ emit signalp: Error calling from signal ‘ready’ to callable: "Node2D(game.gd): on ready: Method not found.

Not: Note: I am working on the latest version 4.0.2

Put an underscore next to delta like this: _delta, and do the same for every delta used in all of your code. This will keep your code nice and clean. Otherwise, if you ignore it nothing will happen. Your code will still work without the underscore or _delta. I put the underscore next to delta so that I am eliminating the warning messages and my code is clean.

My camera doesn’t move to center the player when jumping, but seems to be centered on the background. In the tutorial video the camera moves up and down as the player jumps. I’ve been through the steps to be make sure I didn’t miss anything and can’t find the cause. Any ideas?
