With the great work done in the OneLoad64 collection, many of the most popular C64 games are now available as instant-load PRG files.
However, if you have loaded a game in this fashion, and then try to load a different one, it will not work, since you need to reset the C64 first.
It would be great to make it the default behavior that loading a new PRG resets the C64 core first, same as is the case with Cartridges. See how VICE does it as an example.
(If there’s a use case for loading a PRG and not resetting first, this could be an option, but the majority case is likely to be loading a new game for most people)
