master branch is a good to go but have many issues about the wrong package of Flixel.Utils...
So I decided to change git to dev branch.

I got this error on the run.

What do you mean by "wrong package"? Are you sure you are using compatible versions of the libraries? (either all from haxelib or all from GitHub)

That error started showing up since we added systools as a dependency on dev - you should be fine if you run "haxelib install systools". Haxelib can be weird sometimes.

Flixel-addons some class still use Flixel.Utils.FlxRandom instead of Flixel.Math.FlxRandom

I use this command to install git
haxelib git flixel-addons https://github.com/HaxeFlixel/flixel-addons.git dev
I get error about cannot find this flixel-addons

If I use
haxelib git flixel-addons https://github.com/HaxeFlixel/flixel-addons.git master

It's worked fine. but have issues about Flixel.Utils... as I mentioned above. That's all.

If you want to run the dev branch of flixel, you also need to run the dev branch of flixel-addons. Haxelib + dev versions are not compatible.

Like I said, run haxelib install systools.

Ok It's working right now. Thanks a lot.
But Would you mind if I ask what is the purpose of systools actually?

Btw. latest version of systool seems not to work on iOS (I use FlxScreenGrab), the game crashes right after launch because of some static systools initialization error. I've mitigated this problem by adding compilation conditionals in flixel-addons (in include.xml and FlxScreenGrab) so it doesn't try to use systools for iOS build.

Have you reported that issue on the systools repo?
