ReferenceError Cannot access 'Behaviour' before initialization

šŸŒµ Needle Engine
1

First off thank you for this amazing tool!

I got it to work but I canā€™t get the workflow working as shown in the YT tutorial.

All works fine until this moment in the video

The live update workflow gives an error in the browser of

ReferenceError: Cannot access 'Behaviour' before initialization

Only way around it is to click the ā€œStart Serverā€ button in the Needle Engine tool over and over until it finally works. Nothing works to fix it and I donā€™t ever see realtime live updates as shown in the video.

Current workflow:

  1. Start server from Needle Export object via the Inspector
  2. Move and scale the cactus
  3. Save the project
  4. Browser refreshes and then goes white screen with the error above.

Iā€™ve tried many things but canā€™t get past that part.

Advice?

Hey sorry about that. Itā€™s a known issue and weā€™re looking into how to fix it.

When it happens for me stopping the server and clicking play again usually fixes it - from your description it sounds like you tried that several times but it took more attempts until it worked?

Yeah itā€™s pretty random. I eventually get it to work after different variations of restarting the server.

Changed the channel name: ReferenceError Cannot access ā€˜Behaviourā€™ before initialization

Any other suggestions? This started happening and nothing Iā€™ve tried has fixed it.

Does this help?

17

I tried a few times, but no

Can you try if stopping the server, clicking install and then starting again helps?

19

Which OS and node version are you on?

That may have worked just now, thought Iā€™m not sure what order I clicked things
Windows 11, node 16.18.0
