getExpansionForInstallPackage()

@Casmat

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?

[David Healey]

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

[David Healey]

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

[Casmat]

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

[Casmat]

@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)

[David Healey]

@Casmat Expansion should be an expansion object.

[Casmat]

@d-healey Ahh, thanks! what should i put in as the relative path?

[David Healey]

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

[Casmat]

@d-healey Tried it:

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

Still gives an error:

function not found

[David Healey]

@Casmat

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

[Casmat]

@d-healey Morphology - Night Owl name of the expansion trying to import

[David Healey]

@Casmat Oh I see the problem. You have a typo ;)

[Casmat]

@d-healey haha! Found it! silly me sorry for the hassle!
