Pitch_Scale Code Works As Intended, Output Spammed with an Error Message I Cannot Understand

Hello, I created code that adjusts an AudioStreamPlayer3D’s pitch_scale according to the player’s speed using _process(delta). The code works perfectly as intended, but everytime I try to test it out in debug I get spammed with an error message I do not understand but the code works perfectly as intended.

The error is: _process(): Condition "p_pitch_scale <= 0.0" is true.

My code is:

@onready var slide = $slide

func _process(delta):
	slide.pitch_scale = Plrstats.player_speed * 0.1
2

is Plrstats.player_speed ever 0

I think @paintsimmon is probably on the right track. If player_speed ever goes negative (even just a tiny little bit, like -0.0000001) hilarity may ensue. The easy fix is clampf():

slide.pitch_scale = clampf(Plrstats.player_speed * 0.1, 0.0, SOME_MAX_VALUE)

thanks for the help and i did resolve it with this:

var scale_range
@onready var slide = $slide

func _physics_process(delta):
current_speed = velocity.length()
	if current_speed > 0:
		scale_range = current_speed * 0.1
		slide.set_pitch_scale(scale_range)
		slide.pitch_scale = clampf(slide.pitch_scale, 0.2, 4)
	else:
		slide.stop()

It also worked in _process(delta) as well.
