[pendragon274]

Tested versions

• Reproducible in Godot Engine v4.2.stable.official [46dc277], v4.2.1.stable.official, v4.2.2.rc2.
• Does not seem to happen in v4.1.3.stable.official [f06b6836a].

Issue description

Interacting with an OptionButton produces an error message:
ERROR: Attempt to disconnect a nonexistent connection from 'root:<Windows#24779948753>'. Signal: 'focus_entered', callable:...
at: (core/object/object.cpp:1420)
ERROR: Attempt to disconnect a nonexistent connection from 'root:<Windows#24779948753>'. Signal: 'tree_exited', callable:...
at: (core/object/object.cpp:1420)

Only when the project is exported to executable, both release and debug, but does not produce an error when run in the editor.

Steps to reproduce

Starting from an empty project with the root node being a control node, add a child OptionButton and add 2 items to it, labeled Option 1 and Option 2. Then, export the project with the console to an executable. The console executable will display an error when an option is selected in the OptionButton.

Can you try this with 4.2.1? Or 4.2.2.rc2? This might have been fixed and you are on an out of date version

[pendragon274]

I did just now try it with v4.1.3.stable.official [f06b6836a] and the error did not occur. I can try with other versions here soon.

That's an older version, but good to get comparison that means it was introduced after 4.1 was released

[pendragon274]

The error was reproduced in v4.2.1.stable.official [b09f793].

This is happening in 4.2.2.rc2

[akien-mga]

I can reproduce the issue with the MRP, using 4.2.1-stable, and 4.3-dev4 (didn't have dev5 templates locally to test).

I also confirm that there's no bug with 4.1.3-stable. So the regression must be a commit between 4.1-stable and 4.2-stable.

To be clear, this only happens with release templates, not the editor or debug templates.
