Just a tip for those not using devo: cmd-ctrl-shift-right click on any stack displays a menu with many different options, one of which is to save the stack regardless of the mode. It also allows you to send messages to the card or stack directly (easier than the message box for stacks not tople

I've seen the same thing repeatedly. I wasn't able to work around the problem. I'd like a way to manually force the debugger to unload itself and reload the new script. There is a bug report you can add to: On 9/12/18 8:40 AM, Sannyasin Brah

Re: Remote Debugger Anomalies

I asked this before and the fix is to quit the app, if I remember right. The problem on Android is that apps never really quit, they remain in the background until the OS needs the RAM. When the OS wipes the app, we don't receive any messages so the debugger won't know when the socket closes. Th
