I am creating a game where one player will control multiple cars movements, one at a time. The player will move the first car, then second, third, and fourth, and restart the process.
Each car should only move once before going to the next car. I have created a turn queue script that looks like this. It gets the first car node from the children of this main 2D node. Then, the play_turn() function waits for the move() function to be completed in the car node itself. Then it moves to the next car node.
extends Node2D
class_name TurnQueue
var active_character
func initialize():
active_character = get_child(0)
func play_turn():
yield(active_character.move(), "completed")
var new_index : int = (active_character.get_index() + 1) % get_child_count()
active_character = get_child(new_index)
My script for the car node is below. The other car nodes have the same code but with different sprite textures.
extends KinematicBody2D
onready var ray = $RayCast2D
var grid_size = 25
### MOVEMENT VECTORS OF CARS ###
var inputs = {
'ui_up': Vector2.UP + 2*Vector2.RIGHT,
'ui_down': Vector2.DOWN + 2*Vector2.LEFT,
'ui_left': 2*Vector2.LEFT + Vector2.UP,
'ui_right': 2*Vector2.RIGHT + Vector2.DOWN
}
### SET VARIABLES FOR SPRITE TEXTURE CHANGES ###
onready var mysprite = get_node("Red Sedan")
var carTestNW = preload("res://Assets/Test Set/carTestNW.png")
var carTestSE = preload("res://Assets/Test Set/carTestSE.png")
var carTestSW = preload("res://Assets/Test Set/carTestSW.png")
var carTest = preload("res://Assets/Test Set/carTest.png")
### SET VARIABLES ###
func _unhandled_input(event):
for dir in inputs.keys():
if event.is_action_pressed(dir):
move(dir)
func move(dir):
var vector_pos = inputs[dir] * grid_size
ray.cast_to = vector_pos # update position
ray.force_raycast_update() # raycast looks where we want
if !ray.is_colliding(): # ! = is not, if no collision, move
position += vector_pos
if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_up"):
mysprite.set_texture(carTestSE)
if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_down"):
mysprite.set_texture(carTestSW)
if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_left"):
mysprite.set_texture(carTestNW)
if Input.is_action_pressed("ui_right"):
mysprite.set_texture(carTest)
Yet, I still have both cars moving at the same time and not within a turn queue. I am very new to Godot and many of this was learned from different tutorials. Apologies for the messy code. I am happy to answer any other questions, your help is appreciated!
