Bug in particle cli

Hey,
I’m currently in the midst of troubleshooting a problem which I think has to do with the firmware so I’m trying to downgrade the firmware and reflash.

My electron is currently in 0.5.2 and I’ve run particle flash --usb system-part2-0.5.1-electron.bin and particle flash --usb system-part1-0.5.1-electron.bin to downgrade the firmware. After that I did particle compile electron . --target 0.5.1 and particle flash --usb xxxx.bin

Now for some reason my test electron has had a lot of problems connecting today so after the first compile I edited the code and changed system mode to manual so that electron doesn’t get stuck into the connection phase for good. When I try to again compile and reflash nothing changes which leads me to believe there’s some kind of cache problem with the compiler? Or is it something else I’m overlooking?
