Unable to create builds (PC Standalone)

[maxi-jp]

Hi,

We have been working with this amazing plugin during some projects, but now I'm unable to create new builds due to some errors provided by DOTweenPro. In editor mode, everything work just fine.

Unity version: 2018.3.6f1
DOTween v1.2.235 [Release build]
DOTweenPro v1.0.145

Errors (after pressing "Build" button):

DisplayProgressNotification: Build Failed
Error building Player because scripts had compiler errors

Update: I have been able to do a build by removing the Pro version folders.

Confirm. Same issue for Android build (Unity 2018.2.3f1)

[Demigiant]

Ahoy! Sorry I missed the first message. I assume you're using the new ASMDEF system. There's a bug which was introduced by Unity in the latest versions: while before ASMDEF automatically excluded editor code, now they include it unless excluded manually, so that's why the build is failing. Please download the latest version of DOTween here (1.1.245) which solves this problem since it's a core issue (Asset Store upgrade coming soon).

[GiacomoMariani]

I'm still getting the issue with Pro Version
Unity 2020.1.10f
DotTween Pro Version 1.0.244

I tried setting the non-pro version and it is working fine, so the issue might still be just on pro.

[Demigiant]

Hi, can you write me the error log you're getting? There is no build issue I'm aware of right now with DOTween Pro on any platfrom, so I need more info.

[GiacomoMariani]

Platform is standalone windows. The error reproduces only on pro version. We're using ASMDEF.

[Demigiant]

Uhm, that doesn't seem right, those classes should be excluded from builds. I assume you're referencing DOTween's editor ASMDEFs in some of your runtime code/ASMDEFs, can you check? The "DOTweenPro/Editor/DOTweenPro.EditorScripts" ASMDEF should only be referenced by editor code and editor ASMDEFs.

[GiacomoMariani]

Sorry, I thought it was a straightforward solution.

I searched in our own asmdef and I did not see any reference of DOTweenPro/Editor/DOTweenPro.EditorScripts.

Anyway the free version does not have any issue and we do not specifically need the pro version for the project, so for the moment I plan to just switch the version.

[Demigiant]

Then probably there's some custom runtime code referencing those classes. I'm definitely sure there's no other way this could be happening. But I now added a reminder in the Utility panel not to reference DOTween's editor classes or ASMDEFS :)
