Issue Type: Bug

// x.js
module.exports.a = () => {return ()=>{}};

// y.js
let n = require('./x.js');
module.exports.b = n.a();

// anywhere other than y.js
let m = require('./y.js');
let c = m.b(); // ctrl-click b

ctrl-click b leads to 2 definitions and the default is a's definition instead of b's

You example code is not valid JavaScript:

Please provide a working example

[mitivic]

as edit:

// x.js
module.exports.a = () => {return ()=>{}};

// y.js
let n = require('./x.js');
module.exports.b = n.a();

// anywhere
let m = require('./y.js');
let c = m.b(); // ctrl-click b

It seems "require" is relevant to this problem.

Thanks @mitivic. I can reproduce this issue

Just to be clear, in your example you expect go to definition on b to jump to module.exports.b = n.a(); in y.js, correct?

YES
