I have an if statement that goes like this:
if ItemSlots.get_node_or_null("Item1Slot/SubwayTicket").is_pressed():
InventoryItem.ItemName = "SubwayTicket"
Use.disabled = false
As you can see, I used get_node_or_null so that it doesn't display an error when the node is not found. I used this because at a certain point in the game, the node gets deleted (using queue_free()).
The issue is that when the node gets deleted, it still displays an error saying the following:
Attempt to call function 'is_pressed' in base 'null instance' on a null instance.
My guess is that this happens because it's attempting to execute is_pressed() on a node that doesn't exist. My question is: How can I stop the game from executing is_pressed() when the node is null, when it doesn't exist anymore?
