The outdated Edit SOP node has become a very problematic issue causing many errors when attempting to delete or undo it.
As soon as SideFX began adding event callbacks in Houdini 20 that do not work correctly with the viewport, a host of problems arose, and these have not been resolved in updates.
In Houdini 20, there are actually many such errors. For example, you can create a curve and then create several nodes. If you delete these nodes, the curve state throws an error. Often, just by deleting some of the nodes in the node editor, you can get error messages related to the playbar. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE IN HOUDINI 19.5.
I would like to know why SideFX is not working on fixing critical errors. There used to be fewer issues with new releases. That is, after a release, you could wait a while and critical errors would be fixed, but not in the case with Houdini 20. I have submitted many RFEs, some of which were addressed, but the very critical ones remain ignored. Considering that developers interest in the current version has cooled off, as evident from the logs of daily releases and focus on the next release, it's very disappointing to see the overall decline in the program's stability. In the video, I demonstrated a simple example of instability, but in reality, there are many errors specifically in version 20. This was not the case before. It's a pity that Houdini's stability is falling with each release. It was tested on a plain Houdini without any plugins. The error consistently appears in both the Windows and Linux versions.
