This just started happening today and I have no idea why, and without the code to be able to try and track it down I am really kind of stuck :( It was working just fine yesterday.

I really wish you would reconsider making the source code available for Asset Store owners. Many other paid assets do that and I tend to personally favor those as it makes it a lot easier to deal with problems without having to be held up while waiting on support.

Even though it was working fine before this, I ran jenny fix and it.. was acted rather weird as it seemed to add a bunch of keys and them proceed to claim they were unused and offer to remove them.

Then I ran jenny gen again and I get no errors, but it also doesn't actually generate anything. The generated code doesn't change.

PS D:\Unity Projects\seti> .\CodeGenerator\Jenny.exe gen

I suspect that jenny fix actually broke my properties file. I'm going to try deleting it and starting from scratch (not fun) but for posterity this is what it current looks like:

Ok fixed the issue.

Turns out my NAS sync setup had erroneously copied over an old preferences file, but the thing is that file had a completely different name from the default so I am unsure why Jenny decided to start using it instead of the default one all of a sudden? When I deleted that errant file things started working again. The sync runs nightly which is why it was working yesterday.

I'm confused why Jenny started using this other file though without being told to do so. Does it just use the first .properties file that it finds rather than by filename?

[sschmid]

Explanation:
Jenny tries to find a properties file automatically if you don't specify one along with a command. If you specify a properties file with a command it will be used, e.g.

$ jenny gen MyPreferences.properties

If there are multiple properties files found, jenny uses the first one found. Coincidentally I was already working a feature last week that will tell if it found more files and which one it is using. I added this to the Unity preferences and to jenny. Will be in the next release. Sorry for the confusion.

Hi, fixed in Entitas 0.47.0
