Layout.json BUG

Version: Flighting SU13 - 1.34.34.13

**Frequency: Consistently

Severity: Low

Context: What package? In edition, project aircraft

Bug description:

The in game package builder is adding files to the layout.json file, upon removing these files it complains these files cannot be found and the build process fails. The files don’t exits on the package source and the build process continues to refuse to build indicating package validation error… file xxxxx is missing.

Repro steps:

  1. Go to the package destination folder (not the source). Zip a couple of folders, for example the texture folder as texture.rar…
  2. In game hit compile.
  3. Return to the folder and remove the texture.rar file from there.
  4. Hit compile once more inside MSFS. You will see now the error and a failure to build the package

NOTE:

The only way now to force a successful build is to edit the layout.json file manually and remove the offending file or files entries from it.

Hello @Simbol

I have tried this on several samples provided with the SDK and the file is automatically removed when trying to build the project (and therefore not added to the layout.json).

Can you reproduce this bug with any of the SDK sample projects?
If not, can you send us the project that triggers this problem?

Regards,
Sylvain

I will try… my package is an airplane thought no Scenery maybe is that? I let you know after more tests…

R.

Hello @Simbol

Any news on this?

Sorry got caught on my own projects coding and forgot… I think this is my fault, I noticed my SDK is still old not running the last one (on purpose because I am too close to release), therefore I am concluding it is related to that.

You can close this ticket :slight_smile:

Best,
