Create Another in a Form Action
The button shows a modal, shows the Create Another button, but calling ->halt prevents the parent data from updating. Hitting Create updates my component correctly. I cannot find a way to do this.

I don't understand, why do you need
halt() in this context?Because the modal closes if I do not. I'm trying to use replicate Create Another functionality on a Form/Component/Action
Action chaining and the Create another shown in documentation work.. but Action and Form/Action are not 1-1
Looks like I have a similar problem with the standard action. The modal either closes, I can't reset the modal form, or I can't dispatch and refresh the parent form. What should the guts be for "// Reset the form and don't close the modal"

I think the
action() part is meant to close the modal... but you're on the right path with dispatch() though. Can you instead let the modal close and in the event handler, trigger a new modal for the "create another" action?Have a look here to see how Filament does it with the tables create action. https://github.com/filamentphp/filament/blob/3.x/packages/tables/src/Actions/CreateAction.php
