GD3/4 Could not preload resource "res://inventory/Slot.gd"

I hope so because I wouldn't know how to change codes to fix it.

Just checking, does my syntax look correct for GD4?

GD3
PlayerInventory.connect("active_item_updated", slots[i], "refresh_style")

GD4
PlayerInventory.active_item_updated.connect(slots[i].refresh_style)

So after all this time I managed to fix it by simply removing the preload and any reference to it... 🤷
(Luckily only used to infer type)

const SlotClass = preload("res://inventory/Slot.gd")
#delete this

...

func add_item_to_empty_slot(item: ItemClass, slot)
#then delete  : SlotClass on functions

I never understood why you would be preloading a script. Everything is in a global namespace in Godot, so you don't need to load anything to access other classes.

cybereality Yeah I wouldn't know anything about that, I just want to learn some Inventory so I can use it for 4.x. I will follow the final chapter of this tutorial and see if anything will go wrong.

I really should give a shoutout to ALBATI_2005 as he did gave the right answer for this problem 👍️ (back then I didn't understand the errors that came after deleting it)

Gowydot Anytime 🙂
