The engine used to lock messages when building a standalone but that was
changed 4 years ago. Personally I think it causes more problems than it
solves, but the solution is to add (multiple) handlers to your stack to
avoid the dialog. Most of my stacks work okay without the additions, but if
you have certain handlers in the message hierarchy you get the dialog. The
code you need to add is in the link above.

Hi all.
I have about had it with the Standalone asking me if I want to save, purge
or cancel for stacks that are already open. I ONLY ever have one version of
any stack that is open, unless the Standalone Builder is leaving stack IN
the Standalone in memory, which would be breathtakingly bad programming,
and I do not think they are doing that.
What I would like to do is edit the library that is popping up that dialog,
and setting it to where it always cancels (doesn’t change anything). I know
I will have to update the library each time a new release came out but it’s
worth it just to avoid the hassle of quitting and relaunching every time a
different standalone need to be built.
I tried editing the script of revSaveAsStandalone.livecode in the MacOS
bundle, but the word “purge” does not occur in the library. Any idea what
library is actually popping up that dialog?
BTW the standalone building IS much faster with 9.6.12 (rc1)
