Signal error ?

GarromOrcShaman

Hello everyone. I'm experiencing strange error and I want to be sure it is not my mistake before posting new issue on github. My game started to throwing this error at some point(I don't remember when exactly).

0:01:56:0837 - Method/Function Failed, returning: Variant() Type:Error Description: Time: 0:01:56:0837 C Error: Method/Function Failed, returning: Variant() C Source: modules/gdscript/gdscript_function.cpp:1490 C Function: _signal_callback

It happens kinda random. Sometimes it happens 4-12 times per run, sometimes not at all. I haven't noticed any negative effect during game which makes me wonder, what signal exactly causing this error. When it happens multiple times, errors are identical (except time). There is no stack trace available for this error.

Does someone knows what it means and how to get rid of it ?

Thanks. -Garrom

Might this signal come from an instanced node that perhaps gets destroyed at some point?

All projectiles are instanced and destroyed emitting signals "hit" and "miss". All foes emit "killed" signal and all object emit "picked_up" signal. If it really is as you said, it can be caused by literally any node.

try adding a breakpoint at the beginning of your process(delta) method, you would have to do lots of "continue" button clicks in debug mode, but you might have your answer this way!
