RE: Debugging kickstart general advice sought

Yikes,

I imagined that there could(should?) be a way to do a "state" change that would allow you to return to a previous state/position in the kickstart and try something again. 

Does anybody use the debug mode or now how to use it? I am not sure how to start it at will.

Regards
