Can not create C# script type plugins, Cyclical issue

[HexBlit]

Tested versions

This is reproducible on Godot v4.2.1.stable.mono

System information

Windows 10.0.22621 - Vulkan (Forward+) - dedicated NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 (NVIDIA; 31.0.15.4633) - 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900KS (32 Threads)

Issue description

If you try to create a C# editor plugin in v4.2.1 mono using C# as the language it shows a cyclic error when the default new plugin files are generated after going through the create new plugin workflow.

Steps to reproduce

In the Mono Godot editor create a new blank project. Then go and create a new plugin, and set the language C# instead of gdscript.

A cyclic error will appear and prevent the plugin from being enabled.

Did you uncheck the "activate now" checkbox in the plugin configuration?

If not then this is a duplicate of:

• C# Editor Script Activation Issue: "Possible Cyclic Resource Inclusion" Error #84878

Otherwise it's a duplicate of:

• Cyclic resource error when saving .cs file in external editor #57211

I did not, it does that when you create new one with it auto activating. and gives the error anytime you try to activate it.

This is a duplicate of #84878 when I checked that one, I had to make sure I compiled the csharp script per the comments in that other issue.

There should be some polish on this to not auto activate on a C# script plugin, or run a compile task before activating.

Yes, there is, see that issue there's a PR for just that 🙂

Closing as a duplicate of that then, thank you for reporting
