I ssh'd into my pi zero, then I created the script with : sudo nano
script.py then copied some other python script into the new script.py.
I then ran sudo python3 script.py from within the directory the said
script is in, which is the Downloads directory.
Nothing happens, no errors, no leds lit.

If I open a terminal window on the pi desktop and run the exact same
sudo python3 script.py, it runs and the leds light up
