[RESOLVED] Stencyl is loading an older version of my game. Weird!

Testing on my android seems to produce an older version of my game. For a few hours now, Stencyl hasn't been recognizing anything new I've added...after it's done "sending to device", it just produces the game as it was many hours ago...but I've added new code, new features, and none of them are showing.

To verify this, I've disabled a bunch of very important code and tested to see if Stencyl would recognize it, and it does not. Very weird! Any ideas on what's going on? Many thanks in advance.

[EDIT]: I'm not sure what fixed it, but a day or two afterward it suddenly started working again. I didn't do anything other than uninstall the game from my device and wait 1-2 days (even though that didn't work right away).

Have you uninstalled the app from your device before testing the new version? I've noticed that sometimes Stencyl is not able to update the existing app (it depends on what is actually changed). Uninstalling the old app will force Stencyl to install the new one.
Anyway, if you have a look at the log you can find more infos on what's going on.

Hi, FMStudioGameDev! Thank you for responding! I had the same thought you did, and I uninstalled the app from my device before testing the new version. However,  after testing the game, it did not install. Once "sending to device" completed, nothing happened.

I have attached my logs for your reference. Any help would be so much appreciated!

Thanks! I hope you don't mind that I quoted you. I wasn't sure if you'd see my response.

I had the same issue before. Always unstill your older game first, and use s proper USB cable

Yep, I have done that. But now, the game is not sending to android. Once "sending to device" completes, nothing happens.
