I use this way for now

var counter = 0
var cam_shake = false
var shake_amount = 6

func _process(delta):
	if cam_shake:
		CamShake(delta)

func CamShake(delta):
	counter += 1 * delta
	$YSorting/Characters/Player/CameraPlayer.set_offset(Vector2( \
		rand_range(-1.0, 1.0) * shake_amount, \
		rand_range(-1.0, 1.0) * shake_amount \
		))
	if counter >= 3: #set time
		cam_shake = false


# to activate:

your func()
shake_amount = 9 #set amount
counter = 0 # reset time
cam_shake = true # lets dance

Ok, So good, my master ! Your code activate so brilliant.Thank you so much. I don't know how to do this anyway.I saved your code into my note.^{^.But} maybe you misunderstood me.(^{_^)!} I'm asking how do the character vibrate when shot, not the camera.But I plan to apply this code to the player to see if it vibrates.What other way do you have, my Master?

Odin

I should do that with Animation Is Better or Code to Shake Player, everyone???

For use that just add a camera2d to your player and make it current. Change the path of your camera in line 11.

I mean, i use this for now, because im trying to avoid as many process as possible. Then let the process for the IA enemies. I think is a good practice. But i am in other war right now.

Anyway, if you want move the player 'position' for simulate shaking you could use this

# player script
var can_shake = false
var time = 0
var counter= 2  # set time

func _process(delta):
	if can_shake:
		if time < counter:
			time += delta
			global_position.x += lerp(rand_range(-5, 5), rand_range(-5, 5), time / counter)
			global_position.y += lerp(rand_range(-5, 5), rand_range(-5, 5), time / counter)

#to activate:
your func():
	time = 0 # reset
	counter= 3 # set time
	can_shake = true

#change the rand range (-5, 5) to set the 'shake' amount (position)

Odin

Awesome, my Master ! I really didn't expect your code to be so short but effective .I have watched a lot of videos on the internet but nothing was satisfied, eg lengthy, confusing, not even effective. Until you give yourself this code. Once again, thank you very much, Master ! (^_*)!
