[christocracy]

It’s invalid to call .changePace when the plug-in is disabled.

you should be catching your exceptions

[ChrisElliotUK]

@christocracy I am catching it, I am just letting you know the exception that is thrown is not formatted correctly. I fully expect the error and I am just testing different scenarios. My understanding is that it should be a Platform Exception but we get FormatException

[christocracy]

I’ll look into it.

[christocracy]

I found the problem. The fix will arrive in the next version.
