Torvic

Hello, I'm currently struggling making a Vampire Survivor clone.
I'm now stuck on the ability/spell popup system
I have a Player with a level_up function that will popup a Node with an exit button and a VBoxCantainer

This is the code on my Player

var spell_amount = 3
var packed_scene = [
	preload("res://Button1.tscn"),
	preload("res://Button2.tscn"),
	preload("res://Button3.tscn"),
	preload("res://Button4.tscn"),
	preload("res://Button5.tscn")
]

onready var spellmenu = get_parent().get_node("CanvasLayer/SpellMenu")
onready var vbox = get_parent().get_node("CanvasLayer/SpellMenu/VBoxContainer")

func level_up():
        get_tree().paused = true
	spellmenu.visible = true
	
	for _i in range(spell_amount):	
		randomize()
		var x = randi() % packed_scene.size()
		var scene = packed_scene[x].instance()
		vbox.add_child(scene)

This randomly adds 3 buttons in my VBoxContainer.

Now how do I delete and not able to instantiate that button when I click it?

I'm not sure if this the proper way to code it

Torvic Control nodes can be tricky, especially when they get instanced. My suggestion is attach the popup to the player as a child, hide it and disable buttons when it is not needed and lock its position relative to the player. Then all your stuff stays in place and you're just working on logic. My two cents anyways.
