In-Game: Inherited functions are not overridden if called from an inherited event in 2024.1100 runtimes

[protogenposting]

Description

This is a really freaky bug.

basically, calling a function in an inherited event will call the function that was originally created in the inherited event. Idk how to explain it better

apparently I wasn't on the latest beta. Updating to the new runtime did not fix the issue though

Got the same issue. In my case I have an empty state declared in the parent object that is being overwritten in the child. When the child performs a call to a new function, it actually invokes empty function from the parent. I have to mention, that empty function is assigned at the parent, not in the child.
Parent:

//create event
state_idle = function() {
};
state = state_idle;
    //step event
state();

Child:

state_idle = function() {
    //some logic to perform
};

I solved my issue by explicitly assigning state in the child:
Child:

//create event
state_idle = function() {
    //some logic to perform
};
state = state_idle; //reassignment
//step event is still inherited

I'm using IDE 2024.6.2.162 with Runtime 2024.6.1.208

Fixed in 2024.11 - not sure what the issue is in the above comment but the bug here was only present in the 2024.11 Beta
