Yeah, I specified that I didn't change spaces in the actual code because I did add line breaks here (to prevent it going off the side of my screen when I switched it to Code Mode there).  I'm aware that spaces can be functional; they aren't in most of the languages I've used, but since Godot/GDScript uses indentations functionally I presume that all whitespace is potentially functional and I'm careful about not messing with it (my brain is pretty well specced to grasp open/close mechanics such as parentheses and nesting -- that's the very thing that those classmates in college were messing up all the time, pasting code into random spots and breaking the nested logic of the original code).

ETA: And yes, I am very careful about the distinction between tabs and spaces.  I'm using tabs in the code for all the indentations -- they don't just look similar, they are equivalent even in the whitespace.

Here's my code (again omitting Anchors and Margins, for brevity).  Again, these are in the exact same files, matching the original code exactly, including the white space (the line breaks have been added here purely for readability, and are not used in the code); the only thing I have changed is the variable names (carefully matched in logic to the original set of names), obvious Strings, and some If/Then logic that shouldn't impact the buttons themselves, just the text displayed (I even commented it out with a test string instead, to be sure it wasn't screwing things up).

So yeah, I don't think I missed something as simple as using the wrong name.  And since changing the original names (in both files) to blahCallOrder and blahCallOrderConfirm completely broke the original sections that were working, and since none of the other files in either directory reference these variables, it definitely feels like I'm missing a piece that needs to get accounted for elsewhere.

Also, I included the buttons.append line exactly as you quoted, in my "samples of my code" at the end of my first post there.  Just added it to here for completion.  Really wish the code formatting let me include line breaks, this wall of text stuff is killing me.
