I can load in a txt file with JSON data, but it can’t interpret it. I’m attaching the error from the console. I’m also attaching the puzzles in question – the first ‘print to console’ works, but not the second. I tried it without the ‘Read JSON From’ puzzle and it set a second error (also attached).

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
It appears there is a syntax error in “read json” (and this puzzle is required in your case). Try to console.log loaded data first to see if the content of your text file is correct. Alternatively, use some online JSON validation tool.

But the JSON file is unchanged. It works before making any changes to the puzzles or updating the app, and doesn’t work afterward. If it matters, the original was done in verge3d 4.5

Looks like something has changed…
Could you please share what printed to the console if you place “print to console” → “loaded data” right before JSON parsing? Also what kind of server you use? And lastly, is it possible to attach the salamanderCabinetJson.txt file here?

Here is what shows on the console. I’m also attaching the txt file.

I’m not sure what you mean by server, I’m working on a Macbook M1 Air 2020, running Sequoia 15.4.1. The verge version is 4.9.2, but the app still says 4.5.1 (as you can see in the screenshot)
