Not Copying Library \assets , it's a directory

Troubleshooting
1

Hi there,

I’m trying to build my project and I get the following error

Not copying library C:\Users\Bawb\Documents\GitHub\Oregon-Trail\Oregon Trail\assets , it’s a directory.

I don’t understand why this is the case and I can run the game just fine. Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks for Reading

Did you start out with a BasicGame project? A normal java project won’t manage the assets folder by default. Also make sure that in your project properties under “Build->Assets” the correct path and asset jar name are set.

@normen

Yes I always start with the basic game. Under Build assets it seems to be right… it just says “assets.jar”

It doesn’t seem to be any different from my other games

EDIT:

Somehow this was solved by enabling Android deployment, and cleaning and building. Why this worked, I can’t say, but that solved it.

I got the problem @normen
The problem lies in uncoupling of build xmls. This means that project structure changes but build xmls stop to refresh! I got this problem when I exported my project to intellij idea. I got the same problem but I don’t know there is any way to relink build xmls! My build xml works for desktop config but not working for android just inverse of @BigBob problem. But he could force build xml to rebuild but in my problem build xlm only compiles desktop files even when I check develop for android and in last steps of compile gives that error.
also in post:

somebody could rebuild xmls by renaming assets folder but it doesn’t work for me! And IDE only runs desktop even when I check Develop for android and select Android device config!
Is there any way to regain build xml autogeneration back?
