Hello world again,
I find myself struggle on something with variables.
I have a sprite in my scene, and I am unsure of what variable to use to declare this as to access all parts of the sprite. I have snippets of what I am referencing
And yes, I am aware that object does not work for that.
Again, I appreciate all help! Thank you.
Maybe can use variable type "Sprite".
Sprite mySprite = GetNode<Sprite>("MySprite");
From the manual.

Awesome! I thank you sincerely, I did not know this was a thing. Are there any other variable types like this?
Actually I am getting a new error now.
"A field initializer cannot reference the non-static field, method, or property 'Node.GetNode<Sprite>(NodePath)'"
Not sure what is exactly wrong, I thank you for the help this far by the way.

You cannot get a node in the definition for the variable. You will need to define the variable as a Sprite, and then call get node later in a function like _Ready. For example:
public class Panel : Godot.Panel {
# other code here...
Sprite mySprite;
# other code here...
public override void _Ready() {
mySprite = GetNode<Sprite>("Cookie");
# other code here...
}
}Then you can use it as expected.
Oh alright, let me try this out.
Is this only limited to "_Ready"? Or am I able to set this anywhere?
Actually disregard that last comment. Many thanks guys!
