XRController3D¶
Inherits: XRNode3D < Node3D < Node < Object
A spatial node representing a spatially-tracked controller.
Description¶
This is a helper spatial node that is linked to the tracking of controllers. It also offers several handy passthroughs to the state of buttons and such on the controllers.
Controllers are linked by their ID. You can create controller nodes before the controllers are available. If your game always uses two controllers (one for each hand), you can predefine the controllers with ID 1 and 2; they will become active as soon as the controllers are identified. If you expect additional controllers to be used, you should react to the signals and add XRController3D nodes to your scene.
The position of the controller node is automatically updated by the XRServer. This makes this node ideal to add child nodes to visualize the controller.
As many XR runtimes now use a configurable action map all inputs are named.

Signals¶
button_pressed ( String name )
Emitted when a button on this controller is pressed.
button_released ( String name )
Emitted when a button on this controller is released.
input_float_changed ( String name, float value )
Emitted when a trigger or similar input on this controller changes value.
input_vector2_changed ( String name, Vector2 value )
Emitted when a thumbstick or thumbpad on this controller is moved.
Method Descriptions¶
float get_float ( StringName name ) const
Returns a numeric value for the input with the given name
. This is used for triggers and grip sensors.
Variant get_input ( StringName name ) const
Returns a Variant for the input with the given name
. This works for any input type, the variant will be typed according to the actions configuration.
TrackerHand get_tracker_hand ( ) const
Returns the hand holding this controller, if known. See TrackerHand.
Vector2 get_vector2 ( StringName name ) const
Returns a Vector2 for the input with the given name
. This is used for thumbsticks and thumbpads found on many controllers.
bool is_button_pressed ( StringName name ) const
Returns true
if the button with the given name
is pressed.
