@import LESS not updating

Joomla 3.3.6
T3 Plugin 2.4.1
TS BS3 Blank 2.1.6

Hi all

I am working on my site in development mode (using LESS in the local folder).

I have a template.less file which imports my other template LESS files, for example:

@import 'scd-content-bottom.less';

My issue is that when I update any of the LESS files and upload them to the site the changes don't display. In order to get around this, each time I make a change to one of the LESS files I have to compile them on the site, turn off development mode and then the change shows.

Is there a way to use @import without having to compile the LESS files (stay in development mode) every time I make a change?
