Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Some exported struct fields remain uneditable, and valid nested constructor values can be lost, so the struct support is not ready to merge. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

- Line 1683: Update the struct-field change flow around
EditorPropertyStruct::_property_changed() and EditorInspector::_edit_set() so a
candidate resource is checked for recursive storage against the outer edited
Resource before the updated struct is emitted or applied. Preserve the existing
behavior for non-recursive values and reject the recursive owning-resource
reference.
- Around line 1671-1675: Update the field-hint selection around
get_field_class_name so Node-derived classes use PROPERTY_HINT_NODE_TYPE with
the class name as hint_string, while Resource-derived non-Node classes retain
PROPERTY_HINT_RESOURCE_TYPE and is_resource behavior. Ensure Node fields
dispatch through the node editor and return the selected Node object.
In `@modules/gdscript/gdscript_analyzer.cpp`:
- Line 6610: Update resolve_struct() so non-nullable Variant::STRUCT fields
without an initializer use the nested StructInfo schema default rather than
Variant(). Ensure StructData::create() and StructInfo::instantiate_default()
receive a constructed nested default, while preserving existing behavior for
initialized and nullable fields.

Use the node editor for Node-derived fields.
Without a hint, Variant::OBJECT dispatches to EditorPropertyResource with base type "Resource". A Node value is not displayed or selectable through that picker. PROPERTY_HINT_NODE_TYPE dispatches to EditorPropertyNodePath with node-editing enabled, which emits the selected Node object.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winPreserve argumented nested struct initializers.
Inner.new(42)is a valid constructor call. The analyzer accepts it when its argument count and types match the struct fields, and the compiler applies the arguments to the constructed value. Because the call is nonconstant,resolve_struct()instead storesmake_struct_schema_default(Inner)asf.default_value.StructData::create()then copies that default, so an outer struct constructed without an explicit field value receivesInner's defaults instead of42. Use the schema default only when the field has no initializer or uses the supported zero-argumentInner.new()form. Preserve or evaluate argumented initializers.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
