Hi!

I have a CharacterBody2D as a playable character, and I want to be able to push an object. Right now, the object i want to push is RigidBody2D. I tried to find tutorials about it in godot 4, but I couldn’t find anything.

Thanks for the help.

You have to do this manually by finding slide collisions:

		for index in get_slide_collision_count():
		var collision = get_slide_collision(index)

And then push the rigid bodies in code.

Hi, thanks for the response.

While it did help me with the trigger, I still couldn’t make the push itself work.
do you have an example code for that?

Thanks

It depends what you want to do, it may be obvious to you but not to us.

Try using collision.get_collider() and collider.apply_central_impulse()

Or use move_and_collide
