UI blocked and cannot recover #60

Closed Enigma-li closed 2 years ago

Enigma-li commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I started the Fusion360 Gym server as suggested in the interface:

Running Open Fusion 360 Go to Tools tab > Add-ins > Scripts and Add-ins In the popup, select the Add-in panel, click the green '+' icon and select the server directory in this repo Click 'Run' to start the server

But the Fusion360 is blocked since then, even I closed and restarted. I searched so many to find a solution and even reinstalled it several times, it cannot return back. And since the UI was blocked, nothing I can do in the interface. Finally, I use the provided python tool to detach the serve, then it goes back normally.

So I suggest that add a few lines around the 'Running' command to tell users that if this case happens, try the python tool to stop the server. I think that would be helpful especially for the novice user of Fusion 360.

Yes I agree this is confusing. I have updated the readme with a note. I'll also leave this open as it would be good to find a way to better handle this in the future.
