Hit box not updating fast enough to rebake layer

Question

Godot is not removing objects from the queue fast enough to rebake layer in the same function but if i call bake later it works. Is there a way to call it on something like @onready with in the function?
Here is the function:

func _on_interact_left():
	if sprite_2d.frame == 0:
		sprite_2d.frame = 1
		hitbox0.queue_free()
		hitbox1.set_collision_layer_value(4,true)
		hitbox1.set_collision_mask_value(4,true)
		hitbox1.set_collision_layer_value(6,true)
		hitbox1.set_collision_mask_value(6,true)
		
		$"..".bake_navigation_polygon()

You could try to Callable.call_deferred() the bake_navigation_polygon() function like: $"..".bake_navigation_polygon.call_deferred() or await for a frame before calling that function like:

await get_tree().process_frame
$"..".bake_navigation_polygon()

The bake function will parse all the nodes with whatever properties they have the moment you call it. There is no delay there, it runs synchronous.

A queue_free() will not remove the node immediately but only on the next process idle. So if you want a node removed immediately from the SceneTree you need to use in addition e.g. remove_child() or something on that node.

A delay only exists for the actual bake when you do it on a thread (default) and for the part where the NavigationServer needs to process all the updates until the change can actually show up for new path queries.
