Getting Coordinates from Scene View

weddi_eddy

Hello.

I'm looking at my main scene and I can see all the elements contained within it. I want to create a cutscene where I move all the players and NPCs to their correct coordinates using x and y values (2D game).

Is there an easy way to hover your mouse over an area on screen and get the coordinates for that spot? I'm sure I could code something but I thought I'd see if I was missing an easier option first.

I found this - https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/inputs/mouse_and_input_coordinates.html.

I used the following code for what I needed: func _input(event):

Mouse in viewport coordinates.

if event is InputEventMouseButton: print("Mouse Click/Unclick at: ", event.position)

I also put this code in a debug section of the script so that I can remember to remove later.

Okay, so please don't follow what I posted above. This gets the coordinates of the viewport and not the actual game coordinates. I've basically created an action input for F (project properties) and then coded my game to get the coordinates of the player using a print() function.

Not totally ideal, but it'll work for the time being.
