Describe the bug

Description:

When attempting to deploy a contract using the forge script command, the deployment appears successful, but the process gets stuck waiting for the transaction receipt to finalize.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run the following command:

   forge script script/Deploy.s.sol:DeployScript \
   		--rpc-url http://0.0.0.0:8545 \
   		--private-key $(DEFAULT_ANVIL_KEY) \
   		--broadcast \
   		-vvvv

Expected Behavior:

The forge script command should complete and finalize the transaction receipt promptly after a successful deployment.

Actual Behavior:

The command outputs a success message for the deployment hash, but then continuously waits for pending transactions and receipts. The console shows repeated eth_getTransactionReceipt and eth_blockNumber calls without finalization.

@jistro please provide a mre of script to reproduce and command you launch anvil with (you may want to set a mining block time), do you use EIP7702 cheatcodes?

No, I did not use an EIP7702 Cheat code, this is the script I use

// SPDX-License-Identifier: UNLICENSED
pragma solidity ^0.8.13;

import {Script, console2} from "forge-std/Script.sol";
import {EvvmMock} from "@EVVM/playground/core/EvvmMock.sol";
import {SMateMock} from "@EVVM/playground/core/staking/SMateMock.sol";

contract DeployMock is Script {
    SMateMock sMate;

    function run() public {
        vm.broadcast();
        deployEvvm();
    }

    function deployEvvm() public returns (address sMateAddress) {
        sMate = new SMateMock(msg.sender);
        console2.log("sMate address: ", address(sMate));
        console2.log("Evvm address: ", sMate.getEvvmAddress());
        console2.log(
            "MNS address: ",
            EvvmMock(sMate.getEvvmAddress()).getMateNameServiceAddress()
        );
        return address(sMate);
    }
}

@jistro are you launching Anvil with any special commands or flags?

Would you mind trying with --block-time 1?

Are the contracts you are deploying very large (>24kb)?

I haven't used that flag but some contracts I use are over 24kb

anvil can be started with --disable-code-size-limit for such, maybe you can try and see if any difference https://book.getfoundry.sh/reference/cli/anvil
