Having trouble with StaticBody2D Collisions.

utsavk0112

Hi, I'm new to Godot and am trying to follow this tutorial ( to make a flappy bird game. I have an Area2D to detect when the walls move outside the camera, however they aren't being detected. After some testing, I replaced one of the walls with a KinematicBody2D, and that seemed to work just fine (was using StaticBody2Ds previously). I would prefer to use StaticBody's as they don't stop the player when it collides between the pipes. Is there any solution to this or is just it a bug? (Also, I'm using C# for scripting rather then GDScript, so I don't know if that's causing any issues.)

private void _on_Resetter_body_entered(Node body) { GD.Print(body.Name); }
Code used to detect collision.

The setup. (One of the walls has a KinematicBody2D while the other has a StaticBody2D)

Only KinematicBody2D is detected.

KinematicBodies are meant for the player or enemies. Though they can kind of work, it's not intended for them to be walls. So they should be static bodies. I haven't done that tutorial, but when a camera moves, the world does not move. Everything is essentially in the same place. So I'm unsure why the tutorial would be like that. Though it looks like the block in the middle in your picture is smaller than the video. Maybe it should be larger? Also, make sure you do not scale and collision bodies. They need to be at 1.0 scale for the physics engine to work. If you need them different sizes, then you can adjust the shape or extents of the collision shape.
