How to do body_entered signal in a sprite?

0 votes

I want to make it so that when the Light2D enters a certain sprite, this sprite becomes visible, and when the light does not entered in the sprite, the sprite becomes invisible (it's like limiting the player's view in 5mintokill.io). How can I do that?

You don't need a body_enteredsignal. You can use a Light2D as a mask. If you really want to use a signal you'll have to make an Area2D and attach it to the sprite.

Ok, but how to use Light2D as a mask and make other objects hide behind the shadows (without hiding scene's background)?

Check out this demo. Use light layers to selectively hide stuff.
