Can't find node %PhantomCamera2D

[ChildishGiant]

I'm very new to Godot still so this is probably a stupid mistake but I can't seem to reference the camera from these instantiated nodes

Is the script you're showing attached to all the 0_0-0, 0_1-0 etc. nodes?

[ChildishGiant]

Yeah, each of those has (or should have at least) tile.gd attached to it.

Based on the error output, it says that it's looking for %PhantomCamera2D as a child inside the tile nodes. But because the pcam node is a sibling node, it should just be a case of changing the relative path. This might not be the most concise way of doing it, but you can always assign it in the _ready() method by doing, for example.

var pcam: PhantomCamera2D

func _ready():
  pcam = get_parent().get_node("%PhantomCamera2D")

In the odd chance that there are some instantiation race conditions, you can also verify that the node is ready by using an await signal like so:

func _ready():
  var pcam_temp: PhantomCamera2D = get_parent().get_node("%PhantomCamera2D")

  if not pcam_temp.is_node_ready(): await pcam_temp.ready
  pcam = pcam_temp
