Most basic 3D game object, parent of all 3D-related nodes. Most basic 3D game object, with a 3D [Transform] and visibility settings. All other 3D game objects inherit from Node3D. Use [Node3D] as a parent node to move, scale, rotate and show/hide children in a 3D project. Affine operations (rotate, scale, translate) happen in parent's local coordinate system, unless the [Node3D] object is set as top-level. Affine operations in this coordinate system correspond to direct affine operations on the [Node3D]'s transform. The word local below refers to this coordinate system. The coordinate system that is attached to the [Node3D] object itself is referred to as object-local coordinate system. [b]Note:[/b] Unless otherwise specified, all methods that have angle parameters must have angles specified as [i]radians[/i]. To convert degrees to radians, use [method @GDScript.deg2rad]. https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/3d/introduction_to_3d.html Forces the transform to update. Transform changes in physics are not instant for performance reasons. Transforms are accumulated and then set. Use this if you need an up-to-date transform when doing physics operations. Returns the parent [Node3D], or an empty [Object] if no parent exists or parent is not of type [Node3D]. Returns the current [World3D] resource this [Node3D] node is registered to. Rotates the global (world) transformation around axis, a unit [Vector3], by specified angle in radians. The rotation axis is in global coordinate system. Scales the global (world) transformation by the given [Vector3] scale factors. Moves the global (world) transformation by [Vector3] offset. The offset is in global coordinate system. Disables rendering of this node. Changes [member visible] to [code]false[/code]. Returns whether node notifies about its local transformation changes. [Node3D] will not propagate this by default. Returns whether this node uses a scale of [code](1, 1, 1)[/code] or its local transformation scale. Returns whether this node is set as Toplevel, that is whether it ignores its parent nodes transformations. Returns whether the node notifies about its global and local transformation changes. [Node3D] will not propagate this by default. Returns whether the node is visible, taking into consideration that its parents visibility. Rotates itself so that the local -Z axis points towards the [code]target[/code] position. The transform will first be rotated around the given [code]up[/code] vector, and then fully aligned to the target by a further rotation around an axis perpendicular to both the [code]target[/code] and [code]up[/code] vectors. Operations take place in global space. Moves the node to the specified [code]position[/code], and then rotates itself to point toward the [code]target[/code] as per [method look_at]. Operations take place in global space. Resets this node's transformations (like scale, skew and taper) preserving its rotation and translation by performing Gram-Schmidt orthonormalization on this node's [Transform]. Rotates the local transformation around axis, a unit [Vector3], by specified angle in radians. Rotates the local transformation around axis, a unit [Vector3], by specified angle in radians. The rotation axis is in object-local coordinate system. Rotates the local transformation around the X axis by angle in radians. Rotates the local transformation around the Y axis by angle in radians. Rotates the local transformation around the Z axis by angle in radians. Scales the local transformation by given 3D scale factors in object-local coordinate system. Makes the node ignore its parents transformations. Node transformations are only in global space. Sets whether the node uses a scale of [code](1, 1, 1)[/code] or its local transformation scale. Changes to the local transformation scale are preserved. Reset all transformations for this node (sets its [Transform] to the identity matrix). Sets whether the node ignores notification that its transformation (global or local) changed. Sets whether the node notifies about its local transformation changes. [Node3D] will not propagate this by default. Sets whether the node notifies about its global and local transformation changes. [Node3D] will not propagate this by default, unless it is in the editor context and it has a valid gizmo. Enables rendering of this node. Changes [member visible] to [code]true[/code]. Transforms [code]local_point[/code] from this node's local space to world space. Transforms [code]global_point[/code] from world space to this node's local space. Changes the node's position by the given offset [Vector3]. Note that the translation [code]offset[/code] is affected by the node's scale, so if scaled by e.g. [code](10, 1, 1)[/code], a translation by an offset of [code](2, 0, 0)[/code] would actually add 20 ([code]2 * 10[/code]) to the X coordinate. Changes the node's position by the given offset [Vector3] in local space. Updates the [Node3DGizmo] of this node. The [Node3DGizmo] for this node. Used for example in [EditorNode3DGizmo] as custom visualization and editing handles in Editor. World3D space (global) [Transform] of this node. Rotation part of the local transformation in radians, specified in terms of YXZ-Euler angles in the format (X angle, Y angle, Z angle). [b]Note:[/b] In the mathematical sense, rotation is a matrix and not a vector. The three Euler angles, which are the three independent parameters of the Euler-angle parametrization of the rotation matrix, are stored in a [Vector3] data structure not because the rotation is a vector, but only because [Vector3] exists as a convenient data-structure to store 3 floating-point numbers. Therefore, applying affine operations on the rotation "vector" is not meaningful. Rotation part of the local transformation in degrees, specified in terms of YXZ-Euler angles in the format (X angle, Y angle, Z angle). Scale part of the local transformation. Local space [Transform] of this node, with respect to the parent node. Local translation of this node. If [code]true[/code], this node is drawn. Emitted when node visibility changes. Node3D nodes receives this notification when their global transform changes. This means that either the current or a parent node changed its transform. In order for [constant NOTIFICATION_TRANSFORM_CHANGED] to work, users first need to ask for it, with [method set_notify_transform]. The notification is also sent if the node is in the editor context and it has a valid gizmo. Node3D nodes receives this notification when they are registered to new [World3D] resource. Node3D nodes receives this notification when they are unregistered from current [World3D] resource. Node3D nodes receives this notification when their visibility changes.
