Is there a way to make changes to the game without reloading?

[span4ev]

I decided to play an interesting game, but there is a problem: in the "statistics" section, all the elements have a very crooked positioning, text and pictures overlap each other and nothing is clear. I want to fix it so that I can play normally.
But after each editing of the code, you have to restart the game, and it restarts for a long time.
Enabling the "autoreload" mode leads to an error, the game freezes and crashes.
Exiting the menu prevents the changes from taking effect.

Is there a way to apply changes without restarting the game?

No, I don't think so. You might want to change as much as you can handle in your head, before reloading then. I mean it's clear that a game has to reload for code-changes to take effect.

On the other hand, maybe you could import the necessary "design" parts of that code into your own project, fix it there and then re-import it to the bigger game.

This is your real issue. For some reason, reloading is causing your game to crash.
You need to make sure if you reload, and whats changing, has everything defaulted/declared before the point you reload at.

If you have screens open, I would suggest rolling back and closing the screen so it has a lower chance of doing this, before hitting the reload.

Posting the traceback would help diagnose the exact issue.
