When in the editor and the editor initially starts up, autoload scripts are loaded before GDExtensions are initialized
I currently have this Autoload script that extends from my GDExtension class:
@tool # Ensures this singleton runs in editor
extends BopimoGame
This also seems to cause errors when exporting headlessly, it constantly spams prints from gdscript scripts about the gdextension classes not being found
Steps to reproduce
Create a script that references GDExtension classes
Put the script as an autoload - make sure the @tool annotation is there so it can run in editor
Notice the script can't compile because it doesn't know the GDExtension class
Therefore the autoload won't load inside the editor
Opening the project settings dialogue after the GDExtension has loaded recompiles (i think?) the script and then allows it to work inside the editor
