Hi,
I recently started exploring godot and got confused by the following:
I want to generate my scene through gdscript by adding all child elements in the _ready function.
This works well, but I noticed something weird. When placing a breakpoint in the _ready function or any called function within it, the breakpoint gets hit, but upon continuing, it keeps hitting again infinitely. Replacing the breakpoint with a print statement shows the print statement being run once though.

my code:

extends Node2D

class_name Main

static var _world_map_tile_view_template = preload("res://Scenes/World/WorldMapTileView.tscn")
static var _world_map_view_template = preload("res://Scenes/World/WorldMapView.tscn")

var _world_map_tile_view:WorldMapTileView
var _world_map_view:WorldMapView

# Called when the node enters the scene tree for the first time.
func _ready():
	print("main is ready")
	_world_map_view = Main._world_map_view_template.instantiate()

	var map:WorldMap = WorldMap.new()
	map._generate_map(20,20)

	_world_map_view.initialize(map,Vector2(0,0),Vector2(100,100))
	add_child(_world_map_view)

Is this normal behavior?

    How did you determine that? Are you sure you were not restarting the project each time instead of continuing? To continue a breakpoint you need to press the pause button or hit F7.

      Hi xyz, thx for the reply.

      Damn, I feel stupid. I assumed the shortcut for continue was F5 like in visual studio.
      F7 did the trick, thx for your help
