Can't export vars in 4.0

Question

Hello, when I try to export a var in 4.0 with the syntax

export(float) var velocity

export(NodePath) var targetnode1

I get the error

Unexpected "Identifier" in class body.

full class code

extends KinematicBody3D

export(float) var velocity
export(NodePath) var targetnode1

func _ready():
pass

func onNavigationAgent3Dnavigationfinished():
pass # Replace with function body.

In 4.0 you need to use annotations combined with typing:

@export
var velocity: float

@export
var target_node_1: NodePath 

See the docs on annotations and exports for more info:

• https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/scripting/gdscript/gdscript_basics.html#annotations
• https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/scripting/gdscript/gdscript_exports.html#introduction-to-exports

Notice that you need to look at the docs for "latest" instead of "3.2" down in the bottom left of the docs.
