Hello.

I have a problem with loading JSON into an array when loading the application.

I use the usual method, as in the examples. Everything works fine on the preview in the browser, but I try to export the Debug APK to look at it on the phone and when starting the arrays just remain empty.

Why is there such a difference in work? It seems that I did not have such problems before and the arrays were regularly filled, and I have been suffering with this problem for the last week.

I use r257 beta release.

I'm using 3 files/arrays on a released project.

In this project I'm using files/array as on your image BUT I saw that it sometimes takes more time to load the file/array than to draw the layout, as workaround I'm loading it on my first layout for example.. if you have a menu layout, load your files there..

Or:

Create a common event sheet and have on it:

On start of Layout:

Is ARRAY X empty? If yes, Request File X

Is ARRAY Y empty? If yes, Request File Y

And add this event sheet on your layouts.. so every layout with this event sheet will check on start if your arrays are empty or not.

I created a button that loads JSON into an array when touched. To make sure of this version, but, the problem remains the same.

I also tried the option with a separate event sheet. On the preview, everything works, on the android device no...

Can you share your project?

And how are you debugging it on android?

Hi, it's actually an Android worker mode bug. It cannot make AJAX requests currently.

You can try to reproduce the issue by exporting as debug.apk, then using Chrome Android debugging feature.

Here's the event:

Here's the error, with Construct 3 worker mode on Android.

Note: Setting worker mode to Auto while having third-party addons will not enable worker mode. Hence, you won't be able to reproduce the issue.

I'll try to help by reporting this issue on the Construct 3 bug tracker.

Yes, you are right.

Even not using third-party addons and worker mode set to yes, when debugging it say: "reversed to DOM", so you areright I was not testing using Worker mode.

My apologies. Next time will make sure before answer.
