hi i have a messed up scene and wanna create some parts new. but every time i try to delete the old parts i get this message

Error: Connection not made: 'watter_emit_01_geometryConstraint1.constraintGeometry' -> 'watter_emit_01.geometry'. Connections cannot be modified during evaluation. //

just the name of the node i try to delete changes in the error message.

i tried all the different things that came to my mind

1) disable all node
2) delete the connections
3) unparent and delete

....
....

and so on.

so if someone know what the heck this message wants to tell me i would be very glad.

yeah i did.

the only way that has worked now is to get the ascii file and change inside that via texteditor.

Sometimes you have to break the connections also. It might work that way for you.
