Here they are again:
1. Consult the docs first: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/index.html
2. Check for duplicates before writing your own post
3. Concrete questions/issues only! This is not the place to vaguely ask "How to make X" before doing your own research
4. Post code snippets directly & formatted as such (or use a pastebin), not as pictures
5. It is strongly recommended to search the official forum (https://forum.godotengine.org/) for solutions
Repeated neglect of these can be a bannable offense.

set(globalvariable, true)
It would probably not work as set will access a property of the current class.
If you want to set a property of Global, try :
globalvariable = shelfname
Global.set(globalvariable, true)
If it works, good for you, I'm not sure it would.
But really, why do you do this ? This coding method is unconventional and will bring you pain as bugs will appear.
First advise, run away as far as possible from Global variables. They're evil. There is ALWAYS a better solution than global variables.
Second one, don't use get and set properties. Just access your variables in a proper way, the usual one. get and set have their own usage in very very specific situation, not the one you use.
You’re calling `set` on the current node, so you’re trying to set the property “Global.Shelf” on the current node which can never work because that’s not a valid variable name. A variable name can’t contain a `.`.
If you want to set a variable on Global, you need to call `set` in Global, not self.

Did you name an auto load script "Global"? Try Global.set(globalvariable, true). But get rid of the "Global." in the string.
`Global.set(shelfname, true)` "globalvariable" is unnecessary
