Does anybody else find that reloading an aircraft in FSX (using the menu or key binding) doesn't always seem to completely clear out and reload the gauges?
For instance, if I try out new gauge code and it fails because I've made a mistake, so I edit the file, re-cab it, copy it back into \gauges, and then reload the aircraft, sometimes the gauge now works as it should and other times it wont. But if I shut down FSX and restart it I often find that my gauges work as expected.
This is making my gauge programming very slow going as every time I correct a mistake in the xml I can't be assured that it will function correctly unless I restart the sim every time. In fact sometimes the sim completely hangs. (The when I restart it, it is fine.)
Or is there something else I could be doing to ensure old gauges get properly scrubbed when reloaded?
