Node2D ignores CanvasItemMaterial's Unshaded light mode property

Godot Version

Question

I’m having some trouble getting my 2d node to completely ignore lights and always appear full bright. Here’s my current node structure:

And on the root node (TutorialItem), I have a Material set (CanvasItemMaterial) with the Light Mode property set to unshaded.

However, when I add this node to my scene, it still reacts to all the light as normal and will be too dark in certain places. Any idea why this might happen?

I don’t think the children inherit the material, you might be able to get this effect by adding the material to all it’s children, and/or set a different light mask or visibility layer

Apparently it does not! That’s really interesting considering how most things do inherit, but thank you for letting me know!
