I had no idea about the Interpolated camera, thanks Mr. Kidscancode!!

[jinsgodottutorial]

great tutorial serials, clear audio, very detailed explanations, thanks for sharing!

[dcaucett]

Excellent video, thank you very much. So much fun to get something going so quickly after looking at a bunch of other tutorials. Keep up great work!

[pascalcasier]

Thank you so much for all this videos. They helped us a lot. Go on please.

[Auguste.Lefort]

So cool ! Can you show us how to add an acceleration and deceleration behavior on top of that ? Same thing for the rotation/turn ? That should be very useful !

[a-jg]

am I correct to interpret your sounds "t-s-z-d" as the words "this is the"?

[Henry-fjzf]

Thank u first! helps me a lot. One question : When I do this on my character, I need a turn animation if "s" pressed,

i am using godot 4 as i am new to the game engine but i had a problem, the kinematic body option doesnt seem to exist, as in when i change the root type of my vehicle there isnt an option for a kinematic body, any way to fix this?

Can not download the tank any longer ???

I'll be looking through this in just a few minutes trying to get a flight game off the ground. With any luck, this will work

EDIT: Well, this helped with a couple things. I now recognize the existence of Interpolated Camera, which is an absolute Godsend, and I recognize that the issue I'm having currently is that I'm not quite adjusting the vehicle's position in the right way. Interestingly enough, the interpolated camera gave me an idea for interpolated movement using a leader position node... I'll have to see what I can do with it...

[John_Henry]

BTW Thank you for explaining "basis" Many "tutorial writers" just introduce something like that and forget that the view might not have any idea of what they are talking about.

Wow, great, through more recipes, this could become a version of World of tanks. Excellent class, thanks

[loudris]

My vehicle stops when I try to turn. Can you please help me so it can move and turn at the same time

Which script language did you use in this video?

[AbanoubNassemMousa]

a question how did you assign the camera to the position3d of the player, because when I tried doing that, it only see the player not the children of the player ? the only way I can do it via script, not through the editor

[Pspisripoff]

@kidscancode I had like ten meshes.. i had to import the textures and everything? Was the original file changed or something?

[sigitsatriap]

love all of your videos !

your website also very helpful, and easy to understand for beginner like me,


could you explain how to use the Virtual Joystik for movement ?
my player always move based on its local basis, i dont have any idea how to make its move based on camera basis
since most of tutorial use keyboard input,

any suggest ?

[erinkarp]

The gravity doesn't seem to work?

[fadedtiger]
