Set own function

UnknownUser

Hello community ! Need for help again ⁾ I need to make a a thing for node script, like:

#for example i click a button
func _on_button_show():
 x=1 
vect=-1
max=0
set_process(true)
#set a variables for animation

func _process(delta):
 x+=0.01*vect
self.modulate.a=x
if x+max>=self.modulate.a:
 set_process(false)
 
#then i click another button
func _on_button_move():
x=1000
speed = 0.002 
#set a variables for moving

And then i should set a function for moving, like another process function. But how ? Can i make process function but with another naming ? Like: set_movefunc(true) set_alphafunc(true) Or i need to divide _process into parts ?

Really thank you for help ⁾

If you are just wanting to use different functions for different things but want them all to be called in _process, then you can do something like this (untested):

extends Node2D
var process_print = true	

func _process(delta):
	# example:
	_process_input(delta)
	_process_movement(delta)
	if (process_print):
		_process_print()

func _process_input(delta):
	if (Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_up")):
		print ("Up pressed!")

func _process_movement(delta):
	translation += Vector2(200, 200) * delta

func _process_print():
	print ("Printing!")

Yeah, something like that, thank you very much. if only I could use this apart from the function process. like: set_process_movement(true) func process_movement(delta): pass But it's not working like this, right ? ⁾

No, unfortunately you cannot have something like set_process_movement built-in by default. You could program it yourself though, if you need a similar API. Something like:

var _process_movement_enabled = false
func _process(delta):
	if (_process_movement_enabled):
		_process_movement(delta)

func _process_movement(delta):
	# Code here
	pass

func set_process_movement(process):
	_process_movement_enabled = process
