Changing Scene when Animation is Over

Question

My problem is really simple, but I can't wrap my head around it. What I'm trying to do is to play an animation, and then switch scenes. Here's the code that I want to improve:

extends Control

onready var animplayer = get_node("../../AnimationPlayer")

func _input_event(ev):
    if (ev.type==InputEvent.MOUSE_BUTTON and ev.button_index==BUTTON_LEFT and ev.pressed):
        animplayer.play("AnimationPlayer")
        get_node("/root/globals").setScene("res://Scenes/levelselect.scn")

func _ready():
    pass

I couldn't find a solution to my problem, so I came here. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You can do it with signal.

animplayer.connect("finished", get_node("/root/globals"), "setScene", ["res://Scenes/levelselect.scn"])
animplayer.play("AnimationPlayer")

Answer 2

You can call functions with your animation just by pressing the '+' in the bottom right corner in the animation setup. So if you just make a function in your script, then you can call that function when the animation is over.
