Troubleshooting

• Q. I got a warning message.
  *Notice* task.json output is NOT supported on this version of BlitzMax
• A. This is not a problem.
  BlitzMax Legacy and BlitzMax NG bmk versions lower than 3.39 do not create the output folder while compiling. Your compiled binary files will be placed inside your source folder -- just like with MaxIDE -- instead of following the 'ouput' path you've manually set in tasks.json.
  Read more about Tasks here.
  
  
• Q. I'm seeing the same item in the Auto Complete list twice.
  Whenever I type something, for example Print; I'm seeing Print twice in the Auto Complete list.
• A. This seems to be a rare bug.
  Just open the Command Palette by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P and type Generate Documentations to refresh the list.
  
  
• Q. My problem is not listed here.
  I have a question or problem that is not listed in the troubleshooting section.
• A. We'll figure it out.

  Use the GitHub issues page for everything else, which you can find here.
