F6 studio test mode cannot be launched twice

Bug Reports Studio Bugs
#1

When you press F6 in studio, it launches play solo in another window. If you have that test running and you press F6 again on your main window, you’ll receive this error:
RobloxStudioBeta_2019-10-21_11-38-21

This bug happens 100% of the time and has been hindering my productivity slightly. Repro Steps:

  1. Open Studio
  2. Press F6 to launch Play Solo in another window
  3. Wait until that window is open
  4. Press F6 again on your main development window (not the play solo window) and the bug should occur.

This bug happens in the latest update to Roblox Studio. I’m running the latest version of Win10.

It started happening last week on Thursday (Oct. 17th).

Thanks for reporting. Is there a reason for you to have two testing sessions simultaneously?

It’s an easier and faster workflow for me since I wouldn’t have to wait for game:OnClose() to stop before it closes my window (so I can have one closing while the newer one starts opening). But the biggest reason is so I can look at two separate states of my code if I ever want to compare changes I’ve made.

Thanks. I see. We will work on a fix.
