GDExtension can load resources in editor but not when exported

github.com

GitHub - kureta/PureDataGD

I am writing a GDExtension for binding libpd, library version of PureData. I have added a property with appropriate getter and seterr.

 
          ADD_PROPERTY(
          PropertyInfo(Variant::STRING, "patch_path", PROPERTY_HINT_FILE, "*.pd"),
          "set_patch_path", "get_patch_path");

I do something like this to get the file path and load it to puredata

 
        Ref<FileAccess> file = FileAccess::open(path, FileAccess::READ);
    patch = pd.openPatch(
          file->get_path_absolute().utf8().get_data()->get_path_absolute().utf8().get_data(), "/");

I can select *.pd files from my resources directory, they load and work normally inside the editor. However, they do not work when I export the project.

The complete error message:
