I’ve got these sections of track that I want to snap together. Specifically, I want them to connect so that transform B and transform C are identical. How do I move transform A so that B and C become connected? I am using Godot’s Transform3D for all transforms.
Essentially, you’ll want to find A’s local transform with respect to B (as if B was the parent of A) and use that when setting A’s position.
extends Node3D
@onready var a_mesh: Node3D = $AMesh
@onready var b_mesh: Node3D = $BMesh
@onready var c_mesh: Node3D = $CMesh
var a_offset: Transform3D
func _ready() -> void:
# Find A's local offset relative to B
a_offset = a_mesh.transform * b_mesh.transform.affine_inverse()
func _process(delta: float) -> void:
c_mesh.rotate_y(PI * delta)
b_mesh.transform = c_mesh.transform
# Apply A's local offset relative to B
a_mesh.transform = b_mesh.transform * a_offset
You may want to use global_transform instead of transform, if these nodes do not share the same parent.

This worked great. Thank you!
