so I have been following a tutorial on building a farm sim,(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtlJgdCPJ4k&ab_channel=SmallNap)
I followed his directions to a T and despite his working mine is not as I keep getting a non-existant func "initialize" despite the func being called in a child script. I am fairly new to coding and have tried every which way to solve this issue to no avail. here is the error "Invalid call. Nonexistent function 'initialize' in base 'StaticBody2D'."
I will also attach the script bellow the first two being from the Base Scene and the last from the scene I am trying to instance.
Thank you in advance to anyone that can help!

initialize() is called in several places of your code here. Which one is failing?
