The VisibilityEnabler2D will disable [RigidBody2D], [AnimationPlayer], and other nodes when they are not visible. It will only affect nodes with the same root node as the VisibilityEnabler2D, and the root node itself.

It will only affect nodes with the same root node as the VisibilityEnabler2D, and the root node itself.
[b]Note:[/b] For performance reasons, VisibilityEnabler2D uses an approximate heuristic with precision determined by [member ProjectSettings.world/2d/cell_size]. If you need exact visibility checking, use another method such as adding an [Area2D] node as a child of a [Camera2D] node. If you just want to receive notifications, use [VisibilityNotifier2D] instead.
