This is yet another super weird bug I’ve discovered recently when creating a generator update. Tried on the generator first (while working on the update), but when I try on the Programmatic Get/Set/Submit Example, running the update()
function into the testing panel seems to trigger this bug. I also got an error too, which writes as follows:
DOMException: Failed to execute 'removeChild' on 'Node': The node to be removed is not a child of this node.

And that “nullifies” the com
object which of course renders the comments section’s programmatic submission ability to stop working:
So, if you’ve tried to implement the programmatic interaction features inside of the minimal template (or any generator that has a practical “randomize” button that executes the update()
function), chances are you’ve probably already stumbled upon this bug.
I’ve had the exact same thing, the
com
object wasundefined
’d while testing out. But I think this was a bug on the behalf of thecom
object handling, that it should retain the object without refreshing the comments section altogether.
