False claim that "Variable [name] was used but never assigned a value" about godot HOT 5 CLOSED

Then the question is if this should be backported to 4.2 or not

I think not, since #90442 changed even the meaning of the warning (now it's produced on the variable usages, not on the declaration). This is definitely too big a change for a patch release.

• Duplicate of #88117.
• Fixed for future 4.3 by #90442.

Thanks for reporting the bug nonetheless!

Please try with 4.2.2, some changes related to this were solved recently I believe, and if you could with 4.3.dev6

from godot.

Can confirm that this is fixed in 4.3, can't test 4.2.2 myself right now though, was probably fixed for 4.3 in:

• #90442

from godot.

In 4.2.2 the warning still appearing

Then the question is if this should be backported to 4.2 or not, it's relatively harmless and you can silence it by just assigning something when declaring it anyway
