after_the_tremor_combat shows incorrect controls

[wjt]

The controls are meant to be different for this scene: ⬅️ should cause the left-hand player to repel, while ➡️ should cause the right-hand player to repel. Both players are fixed in place. However now that we show the Input HUD at all times, incorrect controls are shown on screen.

The input hud is shown/hidden based on whether there is a node in the scene in the player group. There are indeed, so the HUD is shown.

The two players are instances of player.tscn. That scene places its root node in the player group. You cannot remove an instance from a group in the instancing scene, at least not in the editor, but you may be able to do so in code. I guess I would first try removing the two players from the group in _ready(), then calling into the InputHUD scene to refresh the HUD visibility if necessary. When full control is restored, readd only the "real" player to the group, and again tell the HUD to update.

For a fuller fix… Both players are fixed into place by setting their speeds to 0. The solution to this problem is complicated by the fact that, once the enemy is deleted, movement is restored to one of the players. But you could imagine making the second player, which never becomes fully interactive, be not an instance of player.tscn but of a copy of that scene which doesn't have any of the movement components, only the sprite, hitbox, and repel component. I think the primary player would still need to be moved in and out of the relevant group.
