If you select the CharacterBody2D template, you get this line:
velocity.x = move_toward(velocity.x, 0, SPEED)
However, the docs say that the third parameter is delta. This means that velocity.x is set to 0 immediately since it can't be any greater than SPEED. The line could be replaced by velocity.x = 0.
I think the line should be replaced by velocity.x = move_toward(velocity.x, 0, SPEED * delta), right?
Also, someone on Discord confused the delta of the move_toward function with the _physics_processdelta. Perhaps the docs should clarify that they're not the same and that delta just means change?
Steps to reproduce
Make a CharacterBody2D with the default template for it.
