Indents not working as I believe they should be. All settings are default.
I want sublime to always delete indents never spaces if that makes any sense.
(SOLVED) Indents broken? Deleting spaces sometimes other times deleting indents

Are you mixing spaces and tabs as indentation? What’s the indentation settings that ST’s using (shown in the bottom-right corner)?
By the way, without "draw_white_space": "all",, it’s hard to see what you are deleting/inserting…

Thanks for the reply! I turned on "draw_white_space": "all", thanks for that I think that alone helps a bit. My tab size is set to the default I believe of 4. So it seems when I hit tab sometimes it is just inserting spaces for some reason. Pasted my user settings below, maybe one of these is causing this that I’m just not aware of?

Perhaps you have a package hooking the backspace key and that eats ST’s default method of removing an indent level.
Run sublime.log_commands(True) in the console, perform the actions again and check which command gets run.

Results from console.
Is it weird for my indents to be like that though or is this a common thing?
I’m trying to switch from VS Code to Sublime, never ran into anything like this before.

Seems I’ve fixed the issue by setting indent to use spaces. Seems like that wouldn’t be the way to go about it but I think this will do. Thanks for the help guys!
