From the caller, call [method GDScriptFunctionState.resume] on the state to resume execution. This invalidates the state. Within the resumed function, [code]yield()[/code] returns whatever was passed to the [code]resume()[/code] function call. If passed an object and a signal, the execution is resumed when the object emits the given signal. In this case, [code]yield()[/code] returns the argument passed to [code]emit_signal()[/code] if the signal takes only one argument, or an array containing all the arguments passed to [code]emit_signal()[/code] if the signal takes multiple arguments. + You can also use [code]yield[/code] to wait for a function to finish: + [codeblock] + func _ready -> void: + yield(do_something(), "completed") + yield(do_something_else(), "completed") + print("All functions are done!") + + func do_something(): + print("Something is done!") + + func do_something_else(): + print("Something else is done!") + + # prints: + # Something is done! + # Something else is done! + # All functions are done! + [/codeblock] + When yielding on a function, the [code]completed[/code] signal will be emitted automatically when the function returns.
