Importing two files in shared.js from the same step_definitions folder will fail file2 about cypress-cucumber-preprocessor

Hello @stevepkuo , thanks for reporting!
But this is a bit weird... I just tried in the current version and it worked..
If you could try with the newest version (0.6.0 ) that would be great, maybe I messed up the versions.
But if the problem still persists - could you make a simple reproduction?

I've tried:

let dataToBeLoaded;
let differentDataToBeLoaded;
given("I require a file", () => {
  dataToBeLoaded = require("./requiringFilesData");
});

given("I require a different file", () => {
  differentDataToBeLoaded = require("./requiringDifferentFilesData");
});

then("I can access theirs data", () => {
  expect(dataToBeLoaded.IAmImported).to.equal(true);
  expect(differentDataToBeLoaded.IAmAlsoImported).to.equal(true);
});

and also

const dataToBeLoaded = require("./requiringFilesData");
const differentDataToBeLoaded = require("./requiringDifferentFilesData");

given("I require a file", () => {
});

given("I require a different file", () => {
});

then("I can access theirs data", () => {
  expect(dataToBeLoaded.IAmImported).to.equal(true);
  expect(differentDataToBeLoaded.IAmAlsoImported).to.equal(true);
});

Feature file:

Feature: Requiring Files

  Scenario: Require Two Files
    Given I require a file
    And I require a different file
    Then I can access theirs data

the files I require are trivial:

module.exports = {
  IAmAlsoImported: true
};

and the second one exports "IAmImported: true" in it

Sorry, it was a mistake on my part. I didn't realize that for my team's project, plugins/index.js was ignoring/overwriting cypress-cucumber-preprocessor's index.js which contains the exact fix I wanted. Once I accounted for that, and used version 0.6.0, the problem went away.
