Allow overloading of functions

[Skript] Loading Skript v2.2-dev32d

Description:
I am calling this function within my code:
EventPlayerJoin({_id},{_p})
(both variables are set)

And this is the function:

function EventPlayerJoin(id: text, p: player):
  broadcast "TEST"

Issue:
When starting up my server I get this error in the log:
[Skript] The function 'EventPlayerJoin' requires at least 3 arguments, but only 2 are given. (events_default.sk, line 294: EventPlayerJoin({_id},{_p})')

The function does not get executed.

But after reloading the skript containing this code I get no errors and the function works fine.

Why?

Ths issue may be that I have several skript files (1.sk, 2.sk, 3.sk) which all contain the same function except that in 3.sk I have the same function name but with 3 required arguments.
Renaming the function in 1.sk seems to help. I was able to run the function in 1.sk)

Duplicate of #1148. Fix should be in the next release.

But for the moment: should I give functions unique names?

[bensku]

Oh. That is actually a different issue then. Function names must be unique, Skript does not match calls by signatures.

[bloggy]

Must they be unique even though the functions are in different skript files?
Example:

skriptfile1.sk
contains a function called "test"

skriptfile2.sk
contains a function called "test"

skriptfile3.sk
contains a function called "test"

Will this work or not?
Because sometimes it seems to work and sometimes it does not, it's strange.

[bensku]

It should just give you and error, always.

no errors, but does not work with some functions on server start. only works when I reload the skript manually.

Guys, can you tell me if I need to use UNIQUE function names throughout ALL scripts or unique function names within the same script?

This isn’t the place to ask questions about your scripts, that’s what the forums and the Skript help discords are for
