Hi @finepointcgi

Thanks you for your work on this article&youtube video tutorial ;-)

It seems you made a mistake in your tutorial: 1) you compile godot-python, this generates a build/dist/ folder that contain what should be put into your project root folder (so a pythonscript.gdnlib and an addons folder). By the way, the release command is here to generate a zip archive of the dist once compile, not for activating release compilation flags. 2) then you run the tests on the build. The first thing this does is downloading a Godot binary given the godot-python plugin alone cannot be tested 3) now you go to the build folder and run the Godot downloaded for the tests 😄 4) then you download the godot-python plugin from the asset store ! so the godot-python you've compiled is not used at all

As a matter of fact, regular user should only do step 4) (i.e. start their regular Godot, open their project, select asset store, download the godot-python plugin, restart Godot. done !)

I'll put this in my article and put a pinned comment that's my fault.
