Aligning nodes

0 votes

Hello, I've been using Godot for four months now, and despite that I've come across something really simple. I just can't allign 2D nodes vertically or horizontally. I try matching the X and Y number for both nodes, but for some reason both sprites end up on completely different places and don't allign. I don't know if there's something else I have to do, and I couldn't find an answer anywhere. Thanks in advance.

More details would be nice, but...

Node locations are relative to the location of their parent. I assume the offending nodes have different parents that themselves have different positions.

You are probably setting their position (based on their parent node).
Try to set their global_position and see if it works.
