I am pretty new to the flame game engine but whenever I try to run my program it keeps saying that
Error: Cannot run with sound null safety, because the following dependencies don't support null safety:
I am just wondering if maybe I am not using the most current version of flame or if I need to temporarily disable null safety? Here is what my pubspec.yaml file currently looks like.

# The following line prevents the package from being accidentally published to
# pub.dev using `pub publish`. This is preferred for private packages.
publish_to: 'none' # Remove this line if you wish to publish to pub.dev
# The following defines the version and build number for your application.
# A version number is three numbers separated by dots, like 1.2.43
# followed by an optional build number separated by a +.
# Both the version and the builder number may be overridden in flutter
# build by specifying --build-name and --build-number, respectively.
# In Android, build-name is used as versionName while build-number used as versionCode.

# In iOS, build-name is used as CFBundleShortVersionString while build-number used as CFBundleVersion.

# the material Icons class.

# To add assets to your application, add an assets section, like this:
assets:
- assets/images/terrythemale.png
# - images/a_dot_ham.jpeg
# An image asset can refer to one or more resolution-specific "variants", see
# https://flutter.dev/assets-and-images/#resolution-aware.
# For details regarding adding assets from package dependencies, see
# https://flutter.dev/assets-and-images/#from-packages
# To add custom fonts to your application, add a fonts section here,
# in this "flutter" section. Each entry in this list should have a
# "family" key with the font family name, and a "fonts" key with a
# list giving the asset and other descriptors for the font. For
# example:
# fonts:
# - family: Schyler
# fonts:
# - asset: fonts/Schyler-Regular.ttf
# - asset: fonts/Schyler-Italic.ttf
# style: italic
# - family: Trajan Pro
# fonts:
# - asset: fonts/TrajanPro.ttf
# - asset: fonts/TrajanPro_Bold.ttf

That is the current stable version, our newest version is 1.0.0-rc10 and in that one we do support null-safety (this is the version that all of our docs are for too).
Do note however that pub counts rc10 as smaller than rc9, so you have to skip the ^ in your pubspec file and depend specifically on rc10 like this:
dependencies:
...
flame: 1.0.0-rc10
We will most likely release rc11 later today which won't have this problem.
EDIT: rc11 is now released so now you can use ^ again:
dependencies:
...
flame: "^1.0.0-releasecandidate.11"
