Welcome to Software Development on Codidact!

Will you help us build our independent community of developers helping developers? We're small and trying to grow. We welcome questions about all aspects of software development, from design to code to QA and more. Got questions? Got answers? Got code you'd like someone to review? Please join us.

The way I tried to mark up code did not work. What is the right way to do it?

The way I tried to mark up code did not work. What is the right way to do it?

The line break after the first signal is ignored.

Some languages use a hash as a comment. Here, it bolds the line, actually setting it to an <h1> tag.

Now I'm typing this, I realize that only the loop at the end actually seems to be in a code block.

Can this be fixed? Should I handle it differently? (I pasted my code, highlighted it and clicked the code icon above.)

`signal player_entered signal player_exited

var test_array: Array[String] = ["Hello","World","!",]

Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time.

func _ready():

$Logo.rotation_degrees = 90

for i in test_array:
	print(i)`

Here, I'll try with the comments removed

`signal player_entered signal player_exited

var test_array: Array[String] = ["Hello","World","!",]

func _ready(): for i in test_array: print(i)`

Now, there is no code block.

Alexei's comment gave me the answer.

Instead of using the code icon, put three backticks "```" at the start and end of the code. Each set of backticks must be on it's own line. Here's an example:

# Called every frame. 'delta' is the elapsed time since the previous frame.
func _process(delta):
	pass

signal player_entered
signal player_exited



func _on_body_entered(body):
#	print("Emitting player_entered")
	player_entered.emit()



func _on_body_exited(body):
#	print("Emitting player_exited")
	player_exited.emit()

The official documentation says:

To mark several lines as code, you can use a code fence. This is three backticks on a newline both on top and at the bottom of your lines of code.
