Issue description

I can't inspect any nodes in Debug in vscode.
I can see/request the Active Scene Tree, so it should be properly connected to godot, but when selecting any node, vscode just throws the error:

Error running command godotTools.debugger.inspectNode: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get_godot_object'). This is likely caused by the extension that contributes godotTools.debugger.inspectNode.

Using godot 4.4, and I made sure to change the default lsp port already.
"godotTools.lsp.serverPort": 6005,

Does this feature work for anyone else? I only discovered this existed now, and it is simply not working for me on the latest version of godot tools.

Steps to reproduce

• Run game
• Request active scene tree
• Click on the eye icon to inspect a node

Result: Error message
Expected: See the node's properties in the Inspector category

I can't test right now, but I seem to recall that execution needs to be stopped before the scene tree will work.

Using godot 4.4, and I made sure to change the default lsp port already.
"godotTools.lsp.serverPort": 6005,

Why would you need to do that?

Why would you need to do that?

I works fine without it as well, but I figure it might be needed since Godot language server seems to be 6005

And the default value seems to be 6008

I think I've heard it changed ports from 6008 to 6005 at some point in 4.x
So I thought that might had been the issue and tried to change it to the one in the editor settings.
But it seems to work fine either with 6008 or 6005.

Oh, you are right, it only works when the debugger is stopped.
I was used to the remote tab inside Godot so I figure it would also work while the game is running.

Sorry about that, closing this then.

That error message is still a problem that needs fixed. It might not be possible to get the scene tree but it shouldn't be throwing errors like that.

If you leave it at the default value, the extension just automatically checks both ports now. I will update the setting's description to make that more explicit.
