Linux Mint - Issues when executing scripts through Geany

I'm using Geany to write and execute some simple scripts in Python and I've been running into a really annoying issue lately. Occasionaly, after running the same script for a few times, the application stops working. Hitting the "run or view the current file" does nothing. Not even a terminal pops up, it's like I never clicked anything. The only thing I can do is edit code. It happens after 10-15 minutes of working and the only thing that seems to fix it is restarting my computer. Any ideas? I'm running Linux Mint 18.3 and Geany 1.27
