Method not found, return NULL with

[chihwahli]

Tested versions

4.3 stable mono only tested and found this bug

System information

Godot v4.3.stable.mono - Windows 10.0.26100 - Vulkan (Forward+) - dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop GPU (NVIDIA; 32.0.15.7216) - AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX3D with Radeon Graphics (32 Threads)

Issue description

An indent, tab I guess, not sure. caused the method not to be found. Tried reloading project, delete .Godot folder to re-import, restart of Godot + visual studio core. Nothing helped.

characterNode is of type character3D
stateMachine is just a simple node
switchstate is a method in stateMachine

Then I typed the code:

            GD.Print(characterNode.GetType());
            GD.Print(characterNode.stateMachineNode.GetType());
            GD.Print(type.GetMethod("SwitchState"));

it returned:
Player
StateMachine
null

Eventually I just looked at the code , found that the method name SwitchState was indented too much to the right, so I moved it back to the correct position, and suddenly all was well. I tried to replicate the error again, by using a combination of tab and or space bar. But could not replicate it.

After that the above code returned, what was expected:
Player
StateMachine
Void SwitchStateT

Because I could not replicate it, I find it useless to attach the godot project for review. if needed, do tell, then I attach.

Steps to reproduce

was just coding, accidentally indented or something else, causing the method not to be found.

Minimal reproduction project (MRP)

no more info. cannot reproduce bug somehow.

This needs more information, what is the StateMachine class?

Please try to replicate this so that you can provide details on how to replicate this, otherwise we can't really help without more information

[chihwahli]

statemachine type, is the most simple node in Godot. grey circle. just called type: node

I will try more. It is just a shame I did not make an backup while the problem persists. Sticky note: backup always.

[AThousandShips]

But where is the method SwitchState declared? Please show some more of your code, there's no such built-in type so it's important to get an idea of what you are doing

This backup is a bit past that point. But has the class that has the problem. I also did not clean up the tmp files, maybe something is in there?
