Most basic 3D game object, parent of all 3D-related nodes.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

Most basic 3D game object, with a :ref:`Transform3D<class_Transform3D>` 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.

\ **Note:** Unless otherwise specified, all methods that have angle parameters must have angles specified as *radians*. To convert degrees to radians, use :ref:`@GlobalScope.deg_to_rad<class_@GlobalScope_method_deg_to_rad>`.

\ **Note:** Be aware that "Spatial" nodes are now called "Node3D" starting with Godot 4. Any Godot 3.x references to "Spatial" nodes refer to "Node3D" in Godot 4.

Rotation part of the global transformation in radians, specified in terms of YXZ-Euler angles in the format (X angle, Y angle, Z angle).

\ **Note:** 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 :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` data structure not because the rotation is a vector, but only because :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` exists as a convenient data-structure to store 3 floating-point numbers.

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_rotation**\ (\ value\: :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>`\ )
- :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` **get_rotation**\ (\ )

Rotation part of the local transformation in radians, specified in terms of Euler angles. The angles construct a rotation in the order specified by the :ref:`rotation_order<class_Node3D_property_rotation_order>` property.

\ **Note:** 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 :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` data structure not because the rotation is a vector, but only because :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` exists as a convenient data-structure to store 3 floating-point numbers.

- |void| **set_scale**\ (\ value\: :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>`\ )
- :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` **get_scale**\ (\ )

Scale part of the local transformation.

\ **Note:** Mixed negative scales in 3D are not decomposable from the transformation matrix. Due to the way scale is represented with transformation matrices in Godot, the scale values will either be all positive or all negative.

\ **Note:** Not all nodes are visually scaled by the :ref:`scale<class_Node3D_property_scale>` property. For example, :ref:`Light3D<class_Light3D>`\ s are not visually affected by :ref:`scale<class_Node3D_property_scale>`.

- |void| **set_visibility_parent**\ (\ value\: :ref:`NodePath<class_NodePath>`\ )
- :ref:`NodePath<class_NodePath>` **get_visibility_parent**\ (\ )

Defines the visibility range parent for this node and its subtree. The visibility parent must be a GeometryInstance3D. Any visual instance will only be visible if the visibility parent (and all of its visibility ancestors) is hidden by being closer to the camera than its own :ref:`GeometryInstance3D.visibility_range_begin<class_GeometryInstance3D_property_visibility_range_begin>`. Nodes hidden via the :ref:`visible<class_Node3D_property_visible>` property are essentially removed from the visibility dependency tree, so dependent instances will not take the hidden node or its ancestors into account.

If ``true``, this node is drawn. The node is only visible if all of its ancestors are visible as well (in other words, :ref:`is_visible_in_tree<class_Node3D_method_is_visible_in_tree>` must return ``true``).

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **add_gizmo**\ (\ gizmo\: :ref:`Node3DGizmo<class_Node3DGizmo>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Node3D_method_add_gizmo>`

Attach an editor gizmo to this **Node3D**.

\ **Note:** The gizmo object would typically be an instance of :ref:`EditorNode3DGizmo<class_EditorNode3DGizmo>`, but the argument type is kept generic to avoid creating a dependency on editor classes in **Node3D**.

----

.. _class_Node3D_method_clear_gizmos:

.. _class_Node3D_method_force_update_transform:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **force_update_transform**\ (\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Node3D_method_force_update_transform>`

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.

:ref:`Array<class_Array>`\[:ref:`Node3DGizmo<class_Node3DGizmo>`\] **get_gizmos**\ (\ ) |const| :ref:`🔗<class_Node3D_method_get_gizmos>`

Returns all the gizmos attached to this **Node3D**.

----

.. _class_Node3D_method_get_global_transform_interpolated:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Transform3D<class_Transform3D>` **get_global_transform_interpolated**\ (\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Node3D_method_get_global_transform_interpolated>`

When using physics interpolation, there will be circumstances in which you want to know the interpolated (displayed) transform of a node rather than the standard transform (which may only be accurate to the most recent physics tick).

This is particularly important for frame-based operations that take place in :ref:`Node._process<class_Node_private_method__process>`, rather than :ref:`Node._physics_process<class_Node_private_method__physics_process>`. Examples include :ref:`Camera3D<class_Camera3D>`\ s focusing on a node, or finding where to fire lasers from on a frame rather than physics tick.

\ **Note:** This function creates an interpolation pump on the **Node3D** the first time it is called, which can respond to physics interpolation resets. If you get problems with "streaking" when initially following a **Node3D**, be sure to call :ref:`get_global_transform_interpolated<class_Node3D_method_get_global_transform_interpolated>` at least once *before* resetting the **Node3D** physics interpolation.

.. rst-class:: classref-method

:ref:`Node3D<class_Node3D>` **get_parent_node_3d**\ (\ ) |const| :ref:`🔗<class_Node3D_method_get_parent_node_3d>`

Returns the parent **Node3D**, or ``null`` if no parent exists, the parent is not of type **Node3D**, or :ref:`top_level<class_Node3D_property_top_level>` is ``true``.

\ **Note:** Calling this method is not equivalent to ``get_parent() as Node3D``, which does not take :ref:`top_level<class_Node3D_property_top_level>` into account.

Returns ``true`` if the node is present in the :ref:`SceneTree<class_SceneTree>`, its :ref:`visible<class_Node3D_property_visible>` property is ``true`` and all its ancestors are also visible. If any ancestor is hidden, this node will not be visible in the scene tree.

.. _class_Node3D_method_look_at:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **look_at**\ (\ target\: :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>`, up\: :ref:`Vector3<class_Vector3>` = Vector3(0, 1, 0), use_model_front\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Node3D_method_look_at>`

Rotates the node so that the local forward axis (-Z, :ref:`Vector3.FORWARD<class_Vector3_constant_FORWARD>`) points toward the ``target`` position.

The local up axis (+Y) points as close to the ``up`` vector as possible while staying perpendicular to the local forward axis. The resulting transform is orthogonal, and the scale is preserved. Non-uniform scaling may not work correctly.

The ``target`` position cannot be the same as the node's position, the ``up`` vector cannot be zero, and the direction from the node's position to the ``target`` vector cannot be parallel to the ``up`` vector.

Operations take place in global space, which means that the node must be in the scene tree.

If ``use_model_front`` is ``true``, the +Z axis (asset front) is treated as forward (implies +X is left) and points toward the ``target`` position. By default, the -Z axis (camera forward) is treated as forward (implies +X is right).
