Trying to debug custom plugins can be really tedious...

I would really like a new button and/or hotkey for reloading a plugin.

Thank you.

Done for next release: * Added new action: Tools > 'Reload transform library', shortcut CTRL+F5 - reloads transforms xml and restarts rendering.

Hello again,

The new system for debugging custom plugins is really helpful, but there are still hiccups that slow down the debugging progress.

Could you please change it so when Chaotica encounters any bug at all with a custom plugin, after showing the error message, treat that custom plugin as "linear", instead of crashing?

Moreover, if there's a change in the number of variables that the plugin has, one has to close Chaotica and open it up again to see the changes and not make Chaotica crash. Could you please make it so that the "Reload Transform Library" function also deals with these cases?

Thank you very much!

Also, it would be really nice not having to restart Chaotica when adding tags to variables like minval = "0", or notes="the length of the line".
