This is especially important for scenes instantiated through a script, because those scenes don't have an owner. [b]Note:[/b] As this method walks through all the descendants of the node, it is the slowest way to get a reference to another node. Whenever possible, consider using [method get_node] instead. To avoid using [method find_node] too often, consider caching the node reference into a variable. -- cgit v1.2.3
