Add_child not working as intendent

[GhostNr1]

Describe the bug

When adding a node in the tree with add_child it's not giving a random number as described in the documentation https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/classes/class_node.html#class-node-method-add-child instead it allways use the force_readable_name. Then you can only add one node then it will have a conflict in naming. Reflected in the documentation is also that if two siblings collide in naming a number should be added to avoid conflicts

Actual behavior

How to Reproduce?

1. Create one scene with some nodes
2. Create another scene with a script
3. In a loop (use timer to not get to many created at a time) then instansiate the first scene and then call add_child

I was trying it out with gdscript to see how it behave and if nothing it should not use nice name it look like this when you run.

It just create a new node with @@ And if you use readble name it look like this instead

I also tried if I could use callv and use add_child but I get the same result as the add_child node

Hi @GhostNr1 so I think this is working, the issue is you've attached the Instantiate Scene output to the wrong input port. I suspect if you take a look in your debug window, you should see an error that says:

E 0:00:00:0842   add_child: Parameter "p_child" is null.
  <C++ Source>   scene/main/node.cpp:1486 @ add_child()

In this case, we should see whether we can exclude the Target node from being auto-wired. The target in this case is the current node the script is attached to, but it exists to allow nodes to manipulate the tree of other nodes.

I think what will also help is that for function calls, only the Target pin should have a (self) reference, the node should not, which should give an indication there is no default, as shown here:
