func subtractsanity():
    if Input.is_anything_pressed():
        subtractsanity()

Assuming your indentation looks like this the function will call itself forever if anything is pressed. Keep in mind scripts/functions run in their entirety and do not wait for events to happen, this will check if anything is pressed and restart the function, since no time has passed something is still pressed, so it restarts the function again and again until your stack overflows.

Make sure to format your pastes

Posting here so to be linked for later use instead of re-typing this every time Make sure you paste scripts instead of screenshots. To properly format pasted code use three ticks ``` at the start and end of your paste like so: ``` # type or paste code here func _ready() -> void:     print("My ready function!") ``` Results in: # type or paste code here func _ready() -> void: print("My ready function!") Press the </> button or ctrl+e in the forum to create these ticks. [2024-09-02…
