    The inspector gets stuck on whatever was last selected when you make changes to code and go back to the editor while in play mode.

    I noticed this I think first in 2018.4.11(not sure if earlier) and was hoping it would not happen in .14, but still is.
    I have recompile after finished playing set.
    Is this a new 'feature' or a bug?

    I also had this issue on 2019.3.10f. I needed to restart to clear it.

    Same issue on 2019.4.18, but only on one specific project.
    Changing the setting in preferences to stop playmode befroe recompile doesn't work.

    When testing that in a different MUCH smaller project I noticed that unity secretly already starts the compilation.
    I had a simple behaviour with a commented debug.log in the update() method. When I pressed play, went into the script and uncommented that debug.log line and return to unity I would see the debug.log already once! so it seems like unity does a recompile to some extent even witht that stop playmode setting.

    I have tried:
    a unity reinstall
    reimport of all assets
    library folder removal

    None of these work.
