It gives me this error:

Print the scene tree at the beginning of that function, and post the output here.

func game_over():
	print_tree()
	get_node("ScoreTimer").stop()

For feedback, I've seen the project. Every node is set up as it should be. :)

The main scene has this timer as a child node.

david8184

Other error.

cybereality

The means ScoreTimer doesn't exist as a child of that node. It could be on a different branch (not a child), you could have renamed it, or maybe it does not exist.

david8184

I have to connect the signal of the ScoreTimer?

Nerdzmasterz

Yes.

DaveTheCoder

(ignore this)

Nerdzmasterz

Go easy on him. :) I left Godot after feeling like I frustrated everyone.

So the signals are basically the nodes' way of communicating with each other. If you don't connect them, they won't communicate.

DaveTheCoder

You're right.

Nerdzmasterz

Here's an example for signals.

Say you want a button to tell the main node to do something. To do that, you emit a signal on button pressed. After that, you connect it to the node you want to listen to it. It's sort of like each node having an email address, and connecting the signals mean the email is sent to the recipients.

WHERE IS THE SIGNAL I HAVE TO CONNECT?

Nerdzmasterz

I can see it from the pic.

It's in the upper-right corner, and appears to already be connected. It's in green.

Nerdzmasterz

It may simply need to be disconnected and reconnected. I don't know why, but if you delete the timeout function and try to type it back in, Godot acts like it doesn't exist. If that's the case, after you disconnect it and reconnect it, the function should reappear in the code, leaving behind the last one.

david8184

Yes. BUT THE ERROR STILL APPEARS.

david8184

THE ERROR APPEARS IN MOB.

Nerdzmasterz

@david8184 , is it alright if I show @cybereality the zip you sent me? I believe she would know exactly how to fix it.

Alternatively, if you want, you can upload the .zip you have, as it must be updated and mine is not.

Nerdzmasterz

Basically, what is happening is the signal is being set to the mob, but there is a bug somewhere which is causing the error. That's why it is being shown on the mob and not the timer.

I'm still looking for the error, I haven't given up.

david8184

OK. THANK YOU.

Nerdzmasterz

Got it!

get_node("ScoreTimer") is supposed to be get_node("../ScoreTimer")

Now this is a bit strange, let me explain this.

There is no Mob scene in Main initially, otherwise you could have simply dragged and dropped the node into the code. Since it wasn't however, you had to type it up.

The issue, however, is that ScoreTimer is not a child of Mob- meaning it was not in the Mob scene.

Because of this, you had to get the parent of the mob (the main scene), and then grab the child ScoreTimer from it. The "../" means you are grabbing the parent of the node with the script being used.
