Checklist for heisenbugs in ThreeJS

Questions

Hi there,

you are doing a great job at ThreeJS! Really great!

I’m facing a Heisenbug in our ThreeJS-based application. Most of the time an object appears when loading the scene correctly, but sometimes it’s just not there. It seems to not make any difference if cache is cleared before loading the scene or not.

Is there a checklist what to do, when facing those hard-to-reproduce-bugs in ThreeJS? Any debugging mode which I can switch on? I found the general troubleshooting-checklist (Troubleshooting - Three.js Tutorials), which doesn’t help me in that case.

Thanks in advance,
Yours Michael
