reset looks to most subsystems like ‘off and on again’, i.e nothing should survive in terms of instances - everything is destroyed and re-created. This includes Nasal so add-ons should just work. Any property data needs to survive should be marked on the SGPropertyNode with a flag (I think it’s ‘archived’ but I will check), it will be saved across the reset, and hence visible to the subsystem when it comes back up again. No special Nasal or signals should be needed, since the idea is that reset looks exactly like a full shutdown and then a clean start. Adding additional signals will break that concept, and potentially bring us back to a dangerous world where some systems behave differently on reset to first-time-init, which is a very bad thing in my opinion.<ref>{{cite web | |||
