Hey there

This project recreates the current problem I'm facing. When a TextureButton (or a TextureRect for that matter) in the level overlaps with the TextureRect in the GUI instance, the mouseentered() signal doesn't fire. If i increase the layer on the GUI scene, the mouseentered() signal on the GUI TextureRect fires, but signals on the TextureButton don't fire.

Any tips to workaround this would be appreciated.

I was able to fix it by resetting Layer for GUI (changed it to 1) and resetting Z Index for ItemContainer (changed it to 0) and changing Mouse -> Filter setting to Ignore for these nodes:

Control
HBoxContainer
LeftArrowContainer
RightArrowContainer

I've learned that whenever you have a problem with catching mouse input, it's usually fixable by changing the mouse filter setting.
