      After the expansion has installed I think you need to call the refreshExpansions function.

      Then you can load the json with the expansion.loadDataFile function. No need to use the file API. Expansions were around years before that.

        @d-healey thanks! Should i keep expNameInstall where it is right now, or should i move that into the installation callback since wouldnt the expansion not exist when the expNameInstall var is in the first line of the browse function?

          @Casmat I don't see why you need that at all.

            Assuming your install button is momentary you should check its value before showing the file browser, otherwise it will trigger twice.

              @d-healey ahhh, we’d be using obj.Expansion, makes sense now! And will take note on the button check, Thanks again!

                @d-healey tried using loadDataFile but kept on getting unkown function errors, how do I use it? Or what should I put in as the relative path?
                Tried this:
                Expansion.loadDataFile(obj.Expansion)

                  @Casmat Expansion should be an expansion object.

                      @Casmat Probably just needs the name of the json file.

                        @d-healey Tried it:

                        obj.Expansion.loadDatafile("expInfo.json")
                        

                        Still gives an error:

                        function not found

                          What does Console.print(obj.Expansion.getProperties().Name); output?
