Code only triggers while debugging

Unity Engine

Hello, I have a Problem with my Code.
In my code, a specific section is only triggered when im in debugging mode.
This means that during normal gameplay, this part of the code is never called. I tried debugging it, and always when im debugging, the code does what it should be.
As soon as I remove the breakpoints, the code dosent trigger.
I tried to test this with “Debug.log” so I can see if it triggers when im not debugging.
In Debugging it wrote out the log, in normal mode, it didnt.
Am I using the update() method wrong?

My Class:

public class MonsterAI : MonoBehaviour {
    [Header("Movement Settings")]
    [SerializeField] protected float moveSpeed = 3.5f;
    [SerializeField] protected Transform[] patrolPoints;

    [Header("Detection and Attack Settings")]
    [SerializeField] protected float detectionRange = 10f;
    [SerializeField] protected float chaseRange = 15f;
    [SerializeField] protected float attackRange = 1.5f;
    [SerializeField] protected float attackCooldown = 2f;

    [Header("Audio Settings")]
    [SerializeField] protected List<AudioClip> alertSounds;
    [SerializeField] protected AudioClip attackSound;

    protected NavMeshAgent agent;
    protected Animator animator;
    protected int currentPatrolIndex;
    protected bool isChasing;
    protected Rigidbody rigidBody;
    protected bool canAttack = true;
    protected Transform player;
    protected AudioSource audioSource;
    private bool audioAlreadyPlayed = false;

    protected virtual void Start() {
        agent = GetComponent<NavMeshAgent>();
        animator = GetComponent<Animator>();
        rigidBody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
        currentPatrolIndex = 0;
        rigidBody.isKinematic = true;

        // Player Referenz automatisch setzen
        GameObject playerObject = GameObject.FindWithTag("Player");
        if (playerObject != null) {
            player = playerObject.transform;
        } else {
            Debug.LogError("Player object not found.");
        }

        // AudioSource-Komponente hinzufügen, falls nicht vorhanden
        audioSource = GetComponent<AudioSource>();
        if (audioSource == null) {
            audioSource = gameObject.AddComponent<AudioSource>();
        }

        GoToNextPatrolPoint();
    }

    protected virtual void Update() {
        if (player == null) {
            return;
        }

        float distanceToPlayer = Vector3.Distance(transform.position, player.position);

        if (isChasing) {
            if (distanceToPlayer > chaseRange) {
                isChasing = false;
                GoToNextPatrolPoint();
                audioAlreadyPlayed = false;
            } else {
                ChasePlayer();
                if (distanceToPlayer <= attackRange && canAttack) {
                    Attack();
                    Debug.Log("Zyklop greift an");
                }
            }
        } else {
            if (distanceToPlayer < detectionRange) {
                isChasing = true;
                PlayRandomAlertSound(audioAlreadyPlayed);
            }
            Patrol();
        }

        UpdateAnimator();

    }

    protected virtual void Patrol() {
        if (agent != null && agent.isActiveAndEnabled && agent.isOnNavMesh) {
            if (agent.remainingDistance < 0.5f && !agent.pathPending) {
                GoToNextPatrolPoint();
            }
        }
    }

    protected virtual void GoToNextPatrolPoint() {
        if (patrolPoints.Length > 0) {
            agent.destination = patrolPoints[currentPatrolIndex].position;
            currentPatrolIndex = (currentPatrolIndex + 1) % patrolPoints.Length;
        }
    }

    protected virtual void ChasePlayer() {
        agent.SetDestination(player.position);
    }

    protected virtual void UpdateAnimator() {
        bool isWalking = agent.velocity.magnitude > 0.1f;
        animator.SetBool("IsWalking", isWalking);
    }

    protected virtual void Attack() {
        canAttack = false;
        PlayAttackSound();
        StopMoving();
        StartCoroutine(AttackCooldown());
    }

    protected IEnumerator AttackCooldown() {
        yield return new WaitForSeconds(attackCooldown);
        canAttack = true;
    }

    protected void PlayAttackSound() {
        if (attackSound != null) {
            audioSource.PlayOneShot(attackSound);
        }
    }

    protected void PlayRandomAlertSound(bool audioAlreadyPlayed) {
        if (alertSounds != null && alertSounds.Count > 0 && !audioAlreadyPlayed) {
            int randomIndex = Random.Range(0, alertSounds.Count);
            AudioClip randomAlertSound = alertSounds[randomIndex];
            audioSource.PlayOneShot(randomAlertSound);
            audioAlreadyPlayed = true;
        }
    }

    private void StopMoving() {
        if (agent.isActiveAndEnabled && agent.isOnNavMesh) {
            agent.isStopped = true;
            agent.velocity = Vector3.zero;
        }

        animator.SetBool("IsWalking", false);
    }

And this is the specific code that isnt triggert as soon as Im not im debugging mode:

                if (distanceToPlayer <= attackRange && canAttack) {
                    Attack();
                    Debug.Log("Zyklop greift an");
                }
