What "Node was asked for child 1 while status=LOADING" mean?

Ignition
1

While doing this:

Code 
def delete_empty_folders():

	folders_list = system.tag.browse(
		path = "[" + conf.default_uns + "]",
		filter = {'tagType': 'Folder', 'recursive': True}
	)

	again = True
	while again:
	
		again = False

		for folder in folders_list:
			# If is an empty folder
			if (not folder.get("hasChildren")
				and folder.get("name") != "_types_"):

				# We should scan all the folders again
				again = True
				system.tag.deleteTags([
					folder.get("fullPath").toString()
				])

		folders_list = system.tag.browse(
			path = "[" + conf.default_uns + "]",
			filter = {'tagType': 'Folder', 'recursive': True}
		)

	return

I got this warnings:

15:01:16.074 [AWT-EventQueue-0] WARN com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.tags.tree.node.AbstractBrowseNode -- Node[New Folder] was asked for child 1 while status=LOADING.
15:01:31.160 [AWT-EventQueue-0] WARN com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.tags.tree.node.AbstractBrowseNode -- Node[ForTestRemove] was asked for child 2 while status=LOADING.

15:02:19.704 [AWT-EventQueue-0] WARN com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.tags.tree.node.AbstractBrowseNode -- Node[ForTestRemove] was asked for child 2 while status=LOADING.

Any idea?

Even when using time.sleep(5) the warnings pop up.

Thx in advance!

This is indicating a concurrency/race issue in the designer's tag browser, not something you're doing wrong. It's not ideal, but it's not causing any harm.
