'ActorNode' is not a subtype of type 'ActorDrawable' in type cast

Hi!
When trying to run an animation of my Flare file, the following exception is thrown:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Export https://www.2dimensions.com/a/marcelgarus/files/flare/murderers:-logo to a .flr file
2. Include that file into a Flutter app: FlareActor('images/logo.flr', animation: 'intro')

I'm using the newest version of the flare_flutter package (1.3.3).

Hey @MarcelGarus, I couldn't reproduce the issue over here!
Could you share the .flr file that's crashing?

[MarcelGarus]

Sure. You can find the .flr file here: https://github.com/marcelgarus/murderers/blob/dev/app/images/logo.flr
If you want to, you can also just clone and run the app (the logo is shown on the splash screen, but not animated due to the exception).

[umberto-sonnino]

It looks like your export contains some mismatched values. We'll be investigating further on why that happened.
In the meantime, if you export again the same animation, you should be able to run it without problems!

[MarcelGarus]

You're right, I simply exported it again and it worked 😄

Kinda strange though... a git diff reveals that the only difference between the two files were that some rotations were slightly different (in the 15th decimal place) and some orders changed.
I don't get how that could have broken the Flare interpreter.

Anyhow, I guess this issue can be closed then. Thanks for all your help! 👍
