Edit:
During runtime the game now works correctly. I could’ve sworn it didn’t. I have no idea what happened here. The visual bug in the editor still persists. I’m gonna leave this post up in case anyone stumbles upon the same issue.
Hello!
Recently, I stumbled upon the weirdest bug I’ve ever seen and I’m really confused now.
Look, I have a simple export for a PackedScene like this:
@export var next_level: PackedScene
And now, I’m trying to set it in the editor to level_6.tscn.
Easy enough, right? Well, no.
You see, Godot treats my level_6.tscn file like it’s a different scene, specifcally main_menu.tscn.
Look, here’s what level_6.tscn looks like:
But in the preview for it, it shows this:
As well as in this preview:
And for reference, this is what my main_menu.tscn looks like:
Now, that alone might be a funny visual bug.
The problem however is that during runtime the game treats level_6.tscn like main_menu.tscn, which of course breaks the whole game.
I don’t really know anymore what to do.
I’ve tried restarting everything, resetting the variable, deleting the .godot folder, but nothing helped.
