  • How do I make the characters arm follow the mouse?

I'm making a 2d platformer shooter, and I want to have the players arm rotate towards the mouse/crosshair. How would I go about doing that? I'm fairly new to Godot, so help would be appreciated

If you're arm has a separate sprite node then in your player script you can do something like this:

onready var arm_sprite = $arm


func _physics_process(delta):
	arm_sprite.look_at(get_global_mouse_position())

The look_at() function will rotate the arm sprite towards get_global_mouse_position() which returns the position of the mouse.
