ionic Resource named "..." already exists.

Rarely I get this error:

Quote

ionic Resource named "..." already exists.

For resources that I loaded again after I deleted them.

Here is how I delete a (texture) resource:

PIXI.loader.resources[image].texture.destroy(true);

delete PIXI.loader.resources[image];

Is that not enough?

[ivan.popelyshev]

Its a very good question. No, destroying the base texture is not enough  I summon @xerver in this topic, he knows what to do.

If you want to reuse a loader instance, you need to call reset() first.

[royibernthal]

Does loader.reset() also destroy existing resources (e.g. textures) or will I have to do that manually?

[xerver]

No it does not call the destroy() method of resources. The loader has no semantic knowledge of what the resources are. It simply clears it's list of resources and prepares to load new resources.

I understand. Thanks
