So I’ve been using the exact 2D code from here: http://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/ray-casting.html on a KinematicBody to cast a ray:

func _fixed_process(delta):
self.look_at(global.PLAYER_POS);
var space_state = get_world().get_direct_space_state();
var result = space_state.intersect_ray(get_global_pos(), global.PLAYER_POS, [ self ] );

But it returns:

 Nonexistent function 'get_space' in base 'KinematicBody2D

Any idea what might be causing this behaviour?

Thanks!
Avery

You want to use get_world_2D() for things that are 2D. The one being used in that example is for 3D.

Thanks! This worked. Just a side note for anyone who stumbles on this, get_world_2D() will fail, but get_world_2d() works perfectly.
