Request For A New Behavior

I would LOVE it if there where a way to show the debugging menu ingame. That way you could see what is happening on your iOS / Android device. Also it would be great if it was generated to a log file! That way you could take it and have log files that you could compare! It would make debugging on iOS easier for me, thats for sure! :D

    Hi @Utveckla_Games I guess that would be useful; just to remind you tho' because I'm sure you know: just park a row of temporary actors on the level with a Display Text behaviour in each, showing your attributes, and one showing the level time attribute so you can get an idea of when certain attributes are changed/initiated/triggered.

    Alright, I'm going to get a head start before y'all get your pitchforks out...

    Haha will all the talk about debugging statements I was worried I was doing something wrong with Display Texts.

    Its reassuring that some of the long-timers use this method.

    Haha am I SERIOUSLY the only one that loves that debugger? I can't live without it! I use it for EVERYTHING! :)) I guess I'm just the oddball. ;)

    Haha, I use the debugger, but I use display text also. It would be nice if we had a list of all the attributes, and their states while we are testing our game.

    Yeah, I've always used Display Text...didn't even now it was an established method used by others until I saw someone recommend it to someone else a while back :P

    If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
  • SolarPepperStudiosSolarPepperStudios Member Posts: 754
    @ShmirlyWhirl But then nothing new would ever be invinted. ;)
  • ShmirlyWhirlShmirlyWhirl Member Posts: 189
    Haha true, but in GameSalad's case I would hope they fix the broken things first.

    Yeah, I find display text a much more useful way of debugging than using the "real" debugger.

    I love using the [ "attribute-name"..Attribute ] syntax in my display text expression editor so I can tell what is what when I have multiples on screen at once.
  • SolarPepperStudiosSolarPepperStudios Member Posts: 754
    Haha well, I guess I'll have to get out of the dark ages and work my way up to using the "Display Text" behavior. :) So much for that idea. :P
