Nonexistent function get_viewport in base Nil

Question

I am running a script:

func _ready():
    screensize.get_viewport().get_rect().size
    set_process(true)
    spawn_fruit(5)

I am getting an error: Nonexistent function get_viewport in base Nil I've seen this error on other peoples scripts for get_rect and other functions, but nothing for this. I am new to GoDot so go easy on me please:)

I just found the solution! In Godot 3.1+ you can't use get_rect() because it was removed. You have to write it as:

screensize = get_viewport().size

Second of all, you have to use f.translate instead of f.set_pos:

f.set_pos(Vector2(rand_range(10, screensize.width-10), rand_range(10, screensize.height-10)))

f.translate(Vector2(rand_range(300, screensize.x-800),rand_range(300, screensize.y-800)))

Thirdly, Vector2 does not use .width and .height anymore. It was changed to .x and .y (Shown Above)
