I wanted to know if it’s possible to extend a function, so that the new inherited function executed code from both the parent function and the new function.

For example, let’s say I have a node with the function do_something() that does action x

What I want is to create an inherited node with the function do_something() being extended to do something more. so it would do action a as well as action b

Solved:

to create an inherited function which executed new code IN ADDITION to the previous code, call the parent function like this:

func do_something():
      .do_something()
      #additional code
