File reading works in editor, but not after exported.

My game reads a world file to see where to place blocks and such. Where do I place the text file where It can be assessed after publishing or exporting? Right now it is in "doc/World1-1.txt" and it works. But does not after doing such things.

Post the code you are using to access the file (include set-up of accessing).

An applet does not normally have permission to read and write files on the local system, so you can't user FileReader as you do above. Also, the file when exported is inside the jar file that makes up your scenario, so it doesn't exist as a separate file. I do have an example scenario showing how you can read file contents from files embedded within your scenario, though.
