How does _ready behave with GDExtension

papy-chacal

Hi,

I don't understand some behaviour around the ready method with GDExtension. I implemented a new Node type (Ico) in GDExtension's C++ API, using a custom ready method. All works fine when instantiating an Ico node in the editor or in-game. The trouble begins when I attach a script to this Node, inheriting from the custom Node type. Implementing a ready method there seems to ghost the Ico::ready method.

I can't call super.ready : Nonexistent function. I tried super.callv("ready", []), but everything freezes; I guess it's calling the current method in an infinite recursion.

So, did I miss something?

I'm not positive, but you may need to use _notification and NOTIFICATION_READY to get the notification in a script (Godot source example). I'm not totally sure, but it might be called even if _ready isn't.
