This is useful when making some change across all instances of a script/scene: 1. Add migration code to the script that runs when the node is instantiated 2. Run this script 3. Remove the migration code 4. Commit the result As commented here you can do this by running a built-in tool that does this to *all* scenes but this can be much more disruptive. You can also do this in the editor by using View Owners..., selecting all, opening all the scenes, then saving each one. You can't use "save all scenes" unless you have marked each scene as unsaved; and EditorInterface.mark_scene_as_unsaved() only operates on the foreground tab (haven't actually checked what happens if you bulk-open scenes and call this during the loading of each one); so doing this by hand involves hitting Ctrl+S, Ctrl+Shift+W, repeatedly.
