Godot4beta6. Doesn't work - await get_tree().create_timer(1.0).timeout

icomputo

"get_tree().reload_current_scene()" never gets executed

DaveTheCoder

Try commenting-out the queue_free().

icomputo

DaveTheCoder

so if "await" works, but I need to use queue_free()
is it bug?

DaveTheCoder

Did commenting-out the queue_free() fix the problem?

icomputo

DaveTheCoder yes

DaveTheCoder

Then the problem is that the node needs to exist for a while in order for that code to work. Try moving the queue_free() after the "await".

icomputo

DaveTheCoder
Yes, I understand, but this is to reload the scene after the player is destroyed. putting queue_free() after await no longer makes sense

DaveTheCoder

What about hiding the player immediately, and deferring the queue_free() until after the "await"?

icomputo

DaveTheCoder
It works that way, thanks

@icomputo Is this from Heartbeast's 1-Bit Godot course? looks just like it and just so happens to be the exact thing I was working on when I encountered the issue. 🙂

Thanks for the suggested solution @DaveTheCoder . Once I realized that's what was happening, I created a workaround by moving the 'await timer' and 'reload scene' code into a function in the level's script, then simply called that function using get_parent(). Works like a charm now.
