  1. Create a script called _entity.gd.
  2. Make it extend a class and give it a class name class_name Entity
  3. Make a second script
  4. in the second script, use the class name Entity in a type annotation of a function parameter.

This looks like a bug on the LSP side of things.

I always encounter this problem, especially when creating files with inheritance relationships in vscode. I need to restart the Godot engine frequently to get the correct prompts and warnings.

Just encountered the same issue. I see reports back from 2020 of the same issue. Couple of issues in this repo already, https://github.com/godotengine/godot-vscode-plugin/issues/266 and https://github.com/godotengine/godot-vscode-plugin/issues/431

The outcome seems to be: seems like a LSP bug.

The workaround that also found is the same as @BeyondXinXin :

I need to restart the Godot engine frequently to get the correct prompts and warnings.

For future reference, I'm posting this in the existing issue on the Godot engine: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/80822

100% an LSP bug.

This sort of thing happens less often for me in Godot 4.2+.
