Loading screen issue

[architektor]

Hello,

I have an issue with the transition animations for my loading screen. My goal is for the LoadingScreen to smoothly fade in after the MenuScreen fades out, and then transition to the Level1 with a fade out effect once the loading is complete. However, the LoadingScreen does not fade in, it appears instantly, and similarly disappears abruptly, bypassing the intended fade out effect when Level1 is ready to be displayed. The transition for Level1 works correctly with a fade in effect.

Here is sample setup:

1. MenuScreen with button to load Level1

func _on_start_pressed():
	SceneManager.set_recorded_scene("level_1")
	var fade_out_options = SceneManager.create_options(1.0, "fade", 0.2, true)
	var fade_in_options = SceneManager.create_options(1.0, "fade", 0.2, true)
	var general_options = SceneManager.create_general_options(Color(0, 0, 0), 1, false, false)
	SceneManager.change_scene("loading_screen", fade_out_options, fade_in_options, general_options)

2. LoadingScreen

func _ready():
	SceneManager.load_finished.connect(loading_finished)
	SceneManager.load_scene_interactive(SceneManager.get_recorded_scene())

func loading_finished():
	var fade_out_options = SceneManager.create_options(1.0, "fade", 0.2, true)
	var fade_in_options = SceneManager.create_options(1.0, "fade", 0.2, true)
	var general_options = SceneManager.create_general_options(Color(0, 0, 0), 0, false, false)
	SceneManager.change_scene_to_loaded_scene(fade_out_options, fade_in_options, general_options)

3. Level1

func _on_ready():
	SceneManager.load_finished.emit()

Could anyone suggest how to ensure the LoadingScreen respects the fade in and out animations? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
