Hello, I have an issue with any and all button nodes: when I am clicking them, they are not responding. No clue how to fix this; I've tried messing around with all relative signals and properties of the node. Thanks a lot in advance.

Perhaps theres a node in front of them that is capturing the mouse input without letting it pass on? Check the mouse filters perhaps?

WAAAAAAWAWA

Nodes aren't the issue... how would I check the mouse filter? Excuse me if that's a stupid question

Megalomaniak

on control type nodes in the inspector you can find mouse related settings that control how the mouse input is handled by the node.

WAAAAAAWAWA

Still nothing. Thanks for your suggestions though.

Could you show us a minimal reprojection project that outlines your issue just enough? There might be more things going on here than you can just tell through text.

WAAAAAAWAWA

Sure. The whole project is small so here is the link to the download for the project.godot file: https://adamb.itch.io/button-isnt-working Inside there's a scene named 'test' which has only a button inside (sorry, it's a bit small, you might want to enlarge it). As I said, the issue is that when I press the button it plainly doesn't respond. Let me know if this isn't clear enough or you need more info etc.

Bruh. You only uploaded the project file. There's no scene, no scripts, nothing. :/

WAAAAAAWAWA

whoops my mistake

SIsilicon28

test.tscn is the only scene with a button, so I'm assuming that's the one you want us to check.

Well I can immediately see that it's not connected to anything, and there's no script in the scene to use the signal anyway. :/

Edit: After giving it a script and connecting the signals, I now see what you mean. I narrowed down the problem to one of your autoloads (SceneChanger). Its Control nodes were blocking the inputs.

After setting both Control and Black to have a mouse filter mode of Ignore, the button works fine.
