Hello!
All the objects are inherited ether from a Node or a Spatial. My guess, they don't have icons because it is a "remote" mode of the scene view. When I observe it in normal "local" view mode, all objects have icons.
Why does Node.get_children() return null?
DaveTheCoder Are any of the 232 errors of interest?
Those all are related to unused arguments which I didn't prepend with underscore.
Everything should have an icon. Something is wrong with those objects.
You might want to fix those 200 errors as well. Maybe 1 or 2 of them in there are real.
z80 When I observe it in normal "local" view mode, all objects have icons.
It might perhaps help to share a screenshot of that local view too.

When I use the Remote tab, all the nodes have their normal icons, just as for the Local tab. (Godot 3.5.2-rc1 and Godot 4.0-beta10)

Here it is:
The same scene but local view. All objects have icons.

Is there a way to figure out what exactly is wrong with the objects? For now I see no icons only when the objects are simultaneously 1) in remote view and 2) are inherited from Node. Objects inherited from Spatial have their normal icons.

I don't know how. All errors are like "The function 'shell_open()' returns a value, but this value is never used." Currently going through them one-by-one and for all API functions returning value assign a dummy variable prepended with underscore to suppress the debugger message. Is there any better way?
z80 Best way to get help is to just share the project if you can afford to.

That warning can be suppressed by preceding the line with:
#warning-ignore:RETURN_VALUE_DISCARDED
You can save some time and have the editor insert that by clicking on the little yellow triangle at the bottom right of the script window and then clicking on [Ignore].
You can also disable warnings globally, but I prefer not to do that, since sometimes the warning indicates an actual mistake:
Project >> Project Settings... >> General >> Debug >> GDScript

Sure. [project link] (https://github.com/z80/ignition). The project is in the folder "/ignition". Godot with classes derived from Node is in "/godot" folder. Particular commit in question is 7985390404d3e2db96f53b75a7269dc6e26df420. File physics/celestial_bodies/celestial_body.gd, line #76.

Ah, thanks a lot! It eliminates 95% of the messages.
