How do I reload a plugin toolbar?

I was getting into plugin development and wanted to reload my plugin after updating it, but I encountered this error when doing so: 01:27:01.243 - This toolbar cannot create more than one button with id: "cloud_2606818899_Plugin".

I looked into destroying the toolbar when I unloaded the plugin, but I got the same error. This error didn’t break my plugin, but does appear every time I update it.

Is there a way to reload a plugin toolbar without this error happening?

Currently, the plugins only reload when you install/delete plugins. If Roblox were able to make it so plugins would also reload when you toggle the active state of a plugin, this would make it easier for me to work uninterrupted on games/plugin development, since I wouldn’t have to r…

Plugin:ReloadPlugins()

Reloading plugins is already implemented and happens any time you install a new plugin. My favorite solutions to the plugin-development problem are user-written tools such as HotSwap (thread), PlacePlugins, and Run Script (which runs things in a plugin environment). If there is…

Shoot, that sucks. Do you know if there’s at least a way for the plugin to acknowledge that the toolbar is still active when updating it?
