Attempting to connect to Twitch's IRC using the code below. I get a successful connection, but messages are not getting sent or received. I am attempting to follow various tutorials, video guides, and the Godot 4.2 docs. Currently using Godot v4.2.2 Stable Official. Thank you in advance for your time.
The code below is triggered by a button linked to the pressed_button_for_testing_in_ui function for debugging.

const CLIENT_USER = 'USER_NAME' # Attempted using user and/or nick
