Hello! Just wanted to say I appreciate everyone's responses and support! in advance :).

Currently, I'm working on an inventory system and everything seems to be working beside one little error.

The debugger says: "Attempt to call function 'set_texture' in base 'null instance' on a null instance." Which is because on line 5 I get an error for get_node: (Node not found: "Background/Inv1/TextureRect" (relative to "root/Control").)

What I'm trying to accomplish. For every item in the player's inventory or inv_data, it places the image of that item in the appropriate inventory slot

I don't understand because if you look in my screenshot the root or "Control" node has Background/Inv1/TextureRect under it. Can someone explain why I'm getting an error and how I can fix it?

Thanks!

There's a GridContainer node as a first child of the Background node. So your path string in line 5 should be: "Background/GridContainer/" + i + "/TextureRect"
