I was deving a plugin and found a little tedious to have to close simba whenever i wanted it to load another dll.

A menu item could be helpful here.

Remember the windows kernel locks dlls into memory as long as simba has them, so you'd need perhaps a checkbox or two buttons.

Isn't there already a reload plugins button?

That unloads then immediately reloads, so you cant replace or remove the dll file.

Hmm, why not just delete the file, then reload?

Or will that not work…

If I'm not mistaken it'll return a "DLL IN USE" error and won't allow you to delete it.

A button => way easier.

Or just rename the DLL. Windows doesn't allow you to remove it, but you can rename it, lol. It's the same trick we use when updating Simba. Anyway, yeah. We'll probably add unload (specific) plugins. (File a bug? :p)
