Works fine in Editor but on Android... NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I am getting a lot of these same errors using Behavior Designer on Android...

It works fine in Unity Editor though.

Android version 2019.2.19
il2cpp and mono
Stripping is off.
Using external behavior trees.
Binary and json.
BD version 1.6.5

Any help would be much appreciated.

Are you using property mappings with global variables? How did you do that? This won't work because of this issue so you'll need to set them at runtime:

How to update Variable Property Mapping?

What's the easiest (is there any!) way to update/add a property mapping programmatically? tree.SetVariable("AttackRange", (SharedFloat)AttackRange); Didn't seem to work ... in my case, I somehow lost all the mappings on 10 prefab entities, redoing these all by hand is tiresome. If it makes...

For context I have 2 teams of 11 players each in the scene.
Each player on both teams share the same external tree.
The players are in the scene from startup and not loaded from prefabs.
Global variables are only used to help calculate and track each player in the formation.

For some unknown reason it is now working without any property mapping at runtime.

What seemed to work was removing the external behavior from each behavior tree in the scene and then re-add it. At least I think that is what fixed it. Sorry I can't be exact.

Thanks
