Thank you! Okay so the tiles are part of a map, and I have a parent node called map with two separate children: hexgrid (where I'm instantiating the scenes) and spawn_objects( where I'm trying to gain access to the index and transform from hexgrid) my intent is to have hexgrid generate the grid and tiles and have spawn_objects instantiate an object within the tile at a certain position within it. Is this perhaps something I should combine into the same script? I typically like to have things modular and keep each component so a single specific task.

Is this the intended purpose for signals? Moving info up and down the tree? If so how are we supposed to send information from one script to another if one is not directly a child of the other? Do we send it to a shared parent node then send the info back down to the secondary script?

I'm emitting in the function that instantiates the tiles so it's definitely getting called. How do I verify that the connection is going through?

Also thanks for letting me know how to format it I was getting conflicting information regarding the syntax from various different tutorials and resources.
