We accidentally released as Lime 7.5.0, which caused a warning on OpenFL 8.9.1.

Lime 7.5.0 should be the same as Lime 7.4.0 and I updated OpenFL 8.9.1 to remove the warning – run haxelib remove openfl 8.9.1 then haxelib install openfl to get the version that allows for Lime 7.5 without a warning

Hey @singmajesty, I’m not able to run on the AIR target anymore as of lime 7.4.0 w/ OpenFL 8.9.*. I get an error from AIRApplication.hx that reads:

[Fault] exception, information=TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter idleMode must be non-null.

Source: https://github.com/openfl/lime/blob/0c163a80e76d9515d272c5e065996ac74d498644/src/lime/_internal/backend/air/AIRApplication.hx#L16

Can you try this yourself to confirm? It’s very easy to reproduce, just openfl test air any flash project, even something simple with nothing on the screen. I think this is specifically a lime issue but I could use a second pair of eyes

@cleod9 This has been fixed on the dev branch:

Official support for Adobe AIR

Ah, thanks so much! Looks like that’ll do the trick
