next action has ThrowArgumentNullException

[Waitsnake]

Used RotationSolverReborn 7.0.5.148 with RebornRotations 7.0.5.147.

Next action is not working (except maybe the first or second action at beginning depending on job) and then it stops with a ThrowArgumentNullException.

Failed to invoke the next action, please contact support.
Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'source')

[LTS-FFXIV]

What are you doing when this happens?

[Waitsnake]

E.g. here I'm with BRD and RebornRotations loaded at a Dummy.
Next action advices to use "the wanderer's minuet" as you see in the small UI window for next action and the marking of "teaching mode" around it.

Then I press "the wanderer's minuet" and instead of advising an next action there is no action in UI for "next action" and also teaching mode shows nothing.

Searching for possible reasons why next action hangs I found out pressing on the BRD job icon on left side opens a window where I see this error stack message I posted before.

I also uninstalled the plugin and closed FFXIV and opened it again and installed RotationSolverReborn fresh but same behaviour.
It was working before todays update, e.g. yesterday evening all was fine.

fix deployed in next version with #435

Ok, I removed plugin again then stopped FFXIV.
Then I renamed my old RotationSolverReborn config folder in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\XIVLauncher\pluginConfigs
to RotationSolver_old.

Then I started game again and installed RotationSolverReborn again and now all works again as before with next actions working without an exception.

So it looked you did in RotationSolverReborn or in RebornRotations a not compatible change with old config.

Ok, I could try my old crashing config again when this fix is out.

[Waitsnake]

Got a new Update for RotationSolverReborn 7.0.5.149 (with RebornRotations 7.0.5.147) and with my old config I still see the next action not working with ThrowArgumentNullException. With my new config still all is fine.

I compared the two config folders with BeyondCompare and there are quite some differences since I not reseted the config in quite some time.

The biggest difference have there 11 files here:
BeneficialPositions.json
DangerousStatus.json
HostileCastingKnockback.json
HostileCastingTank.json
InvincibleStatus.json
NoCastingStatus.json
NoHostileNames.json
NoProvokeNames.json
PriorityStatus.json
PrioTargetNames.json
RotationSolverRecord.json

All the listed 11 json files have in common that the old ones only includes the string "null" while the new once have data in them.

I have have no idea how these files got in this state since i was not monitoring them before?
Maybe you introduced those files or depending features iteratively over time and at one of time a "null" was written into them witch causes now the Exception?

Anyway, I will continue with the fresh generated files from today since those config files are working.
