Load errors when opening the project

Help

Godot Version

4.3

Question

Recently I’ve renamed the project folder and reimported the project. About a day later, (empty?) “Load Errors” windows started popping up whenever I opened the project.

There are also error messages in the console

Despite the load errors, the project/game runs perfectly fine.

Renaming the project folder back to the original name doesn’t help, so I think that can’t be the reason, but I’m not sure what could be because I haven’t touched the scene referenced in the errors (map_editor.tscn) for a few weeks…
I’m also a bit confused about the meaning of the first error message ‘Parse Error: Busy.’

Does anyone know what could cause these errors to occur or what I can do to get rid of them?

Have you updated your Godot at all?

There is most likely a very small corruption or error in map_editor.tscn, which explains the fact that it still works.

Can you send me a link to map_editor.tscn?

I haven’t changed anything about the program, but here’s a link to map_editor.tscn
https://drive.google.com/file/d/15zxpTjfsB9B8OeZ1PveLUGfDmgtMwiEs/view?usp=drive_link

I think this error happening due to the path to map_editor.tscn has been changed.

If it is not the case, can you run the godot console version and send me the content? I want to see the error in details.

I have not moved the scene, nor renamed it.

This is the console output when I run the project:

Update:
It turns out the problem was actually a child node of the root node of map_editor.tscn, an instance of another scene (gui.tscn). When I remove the node, the load errors stop appearing.
I still have no idea what specifically is causing them though, gui.gd isn’t a @tool script, so I feel like it shouldn’t do anything at loadtime and it shouldn’t be a problem for the script to reference it’s parent in a variable, right?

Edit:
These are the contents of map_editor.tscn and gui.tscn in text form, in case that helps:
gui.tscn:
