Class SceneState

Provides access to a scene file's information.

Inheritance
SceneState

Remarks

Maintains a list of resources, nodes, exported and overridden properties, and built-in scripts associated with a scene. They cannot be modified from a SceneState, only accessed. Useful for peeking into what a PackedScene contains without instantiating it.

This class cannot be instantiated directly, it is retrieved for a given scene as the result of get_state.

Methods

get_connection_binds(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the list of bound parameters for the signal at idx.

Array get_connection_binds(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_connection_count

Qualifiers: const

Returns the number of signal connections in the scene.

The idx argument used to query connection metadata in other get_connection_* methods in the interval [0, get_connection_count() - 1].

int get_connection_count

get_connection_flags(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the connection flags for the signal at idx. See ConnectFlags constants.

int get_connection_flags(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_connection_method(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the method connected to the signal at idx.

StringName get_connection_method(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_connection_signal(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the name of the signal at idx.

StringName get_connection_signal(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_connection_source(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the path to the node that owns the signal at idx, relative to the root node.

NodePath get_connection_source(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_connection_target(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the path to the node that owns the method connected to the signal at idx, relative to the root node.

NodePath get_connection_target(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_connection_unbinds(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the number of unbound parameters for the signal at idx.

int get_connection_unbinds(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_count

Qualifiers: const

Returns the number of nodes in the scene.

The idx argument used to query node data in other get_node_* methods in the interval [0, get_node_count() - 1].

int get_node_count

get_node_groups(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the list of group names associated with the node at idx.

PackedStringArray get_node_groups(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_index(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the node's index, which is its position relative to its siblings. This is only relevant and saved in scenes for cases where new nodes are added to an instantiated or inherited scene among siblings from the base scene. Despite the name, this index is not related to the idx argument used here and in other methods.

int get_node_index(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_instance(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns a PackedScene for the node at idx (i.e. the whole branch starting at this node, with its child nodes and resources), or null if the node is not an instance.

PackedScene get_node_instance(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_instance_placeholder(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the path to the represented scene file if the node at idx is an InstancePlaceholder.

String get_node_instance_placeholder(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_name(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the name of the node at idx.

StringName get_node_name(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_owner_path(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the path to the owner of the node at idx, relative to the root node.

NodePath get_node_owner_path(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_path(int, bool)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the path to the node at idx.

If for_parent is true, returns the path of the idx node's parent instead.

NodePath get_node_path(int idx, bool for_parent)

Parameters

idx int
for_parent bool

get_node_property_count(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the number of exported or overridden properties for the node at idx.

The prop_idx argument used to query node property data in other get_node_property_* methods in the interval [0, get_node_property_count() - 1].

int get_node_property_count(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

get_node_property_name(int, int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the name of the property at prop_idx for the node at idx.

StringName get_node_property_name(int idx, int prop_idx)

Parameters

idx int
prop_idx int

get_node_property_value(int, int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the value of the property at prop_idx for the node at idx.

Variant get_node_property_value(int idx, int prop_idx)

Parameters

idx int
prop_idx int

get_node_type(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns the type of the node at idx.

StringName get_node_type(int idx)

Parameters

idx int

is_node_instance_placeholder(int)

Qualifiers: const

Returns true if the node at idx is an InstancePlaceholder.

bool is_node_instance_placeholder(int idx)

Parameters

idx int
