when you do get_something and the something is a value, shouldnt get return whatever the current value is? why does it only return the value it had when it started? even if its in process func it doesnt update
how does _get work?
Getters work together with setters. the value it gets should be updated by a setter.
Welcome to the forums @Zodiacx10!
The _get and _set functions are primarily used with the get_property_list function in the C++ code, as the properties introduced through said function rely on both _get and _set. In _get, the second argument will be overridden with whatever the value has been retrieved, based on what I know of the C++ code.
For GDScript/C#, it is probably better to either access the properties directly, or use the getter/setter functions designed specifically for the property you are wanting.
how does that work for get_collision_point on raycast where there is no set_collision_point?
In a more specialized situation like that I'd expect the physics engine to be the one setting that. And naturally I'd expect it to be set only when there is a collision.
