Setup screen problem

dudedude123

I'm working on a setup screen similar to sports games like Madden and NBA 2K

extends Node


# Declare member variables here. Examples:
# var a = 2
# var b = "text"

onready var teamOne = $TeamOne
onready var teamTwo = $TeamTwo


# Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time.
func _ready():
	
	if Globals.playerOne == teamOne: 
		challengerBoxerBase._process()
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_right"):
			teamOne == null
	
	if Globals.playerOne == teamTwo:
		teamTwo._process()
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left"):
			teamOne == null
				
	if Globals.playerOne == null:
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left"):
				Globals.teamOne == teamOne 
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_right"):
				Globals.teamOne == teamTwo 
			
	if Globals.playerTwo == null:
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_right"):
			Globals.playerTwo == teamTwo 
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left"):
			Globals.playerTwo == teamOne 
			
	if Globals.playerTwo == teamOne:
		teamOne_process()
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_right"):
			teamOne == null
	
	if Globals.playerTwo == teamTwo:
		teamTwo._process()
		if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left"):
			teamOne == null
	

	
	pass # Replace with function body.


# Called every frame. 'delta' is the elapsed time since the previous frame.
func _process(delta):	

	if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_select"):
		get_tree().change_scene("res://Game.tscn")
		teamOne .current_character
		teamTwo .current_character

	pass # Replace with function body.

I can't get it to access the player

Can you explain more about any error messages or what precisely is wrong?

Also, these two lines don't seem to make sense:

guyOne .current_character
guyTwo .current_character

First, you are changing scenes, so I'm not sure that code will run at all. Second, it is not an assignment or method call. So even if you moved those two lines above the change scene, they would not do anything. If would be like writing the following code:

if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_select"):
    57

In terms of syntax, it is valid in the programming language, but writing "57" on a line by itself would not do anything to have any result.

It won't access the team select script so the player can cycle the team

teamOne_process()

Did you intend for that to be teamOne._process() ?

teamOne == null

That should be teamOne = null == is a comparison operator, not an assignment operator. There are several other places where you're incorrectly using == instead of =.

Calling _process()explicitly is valid, but unusual. It's intended to be called by the engine.

You must be getting warning and error messages for that code. Don't ignore them.

cybereality

Yeah, there must be errors or warnings, because there are a lot of mistakes. Also lots of code that is nonsensical and is essentially doing nothing, like:

teamOne == null

Or:

teamOne .current_character

Also, you should probably just read this book, that way you can understand how to fix it yourself. https://www.amazon.com/Godot-Engine-Game-Development-Projects-ebook/dp/B079HZD1S7
