How to utelize the debug.break node ?

[BlueMarker]

Hi,

I’m trying to understand the break node. As far as I can tell; the break is activated at the end of an event. See below samples. Working with loops this doesn’t allow me to read all iterations of a variable, unless I add log nodes on every variable I’d like to read. Working with log nodes is a little tedious though. Is there anyway to break midway a graph/function?

I’m using Unity 2021.3.0.

Thank you kindly for any help!

Examples:

Below sample prints both “0” and “1”, then it breaks. I want it to print “1”, break, print “2”, break, etc.

This sample prints “0”, “1”, “2”, “end”, then it breaks. I want it to print “1”, break, print “2”, break, etc.

Yeah, the debug break node will only pause after the frame is done… You won’t be able to use it to break for an item in a loop.

It is part of our huge backlog of missing things…

Ow, right! Thanks for your prompt reply Eric! Much appreciated!

I’m using a (silly) workaround now with a coroutine. Not exactly a Break Point. But here it is for anyone who is interested.
