Need Help Editing Project Files

[jbawgs]

I'm new to developing on the Pi and in Python, and I'm having an issue -

I've used VSCode to SSH into the pi, I set my project folder to /usr/local/bin/pifire, I edit an eventlogger statement in control.py just to see a change in the debug output (just a test prior to doing the stuff I really want to do), and when I save the changes I crash the whole Pi.

I hard reset the pi, as it was frozen, this time I use the supervisor to stop the control service, save my changes, and crash the whole pi.

I imagine that I'm doing something horribly wrong here in my workflow. Can anyone point me in the right direction? The changes actually saved to the device, but the act of doing so is apparently a big no-no

I want to port a different PID controller that I've used with great success developing an ESP32 based smoker controller, but I wanted all the other features you've got here without having to develop them myself, thanks for this awesome tool.
