PolySpatial Tooling

Logging

PolySpatial logging messages are tagged by category and level to facilitate more targeted debugging. From the main menu of the Unity Editor, select Window > PolySpatial > Logging to open the PolySpatial Logging window. From here, you can toggle which categories are enabled, whether they should generate stack traces, and for categories for which stack traces are enabled, what levels will generate the traces.

Debug Links

To facilitate debugging in Play Mode, the PolySpatial runtime adds DebugPolySpatialGameObjectLinks components to connect each simulation GameObject to its corresponding backing GameObject in the Unity SceneGraph.

Recording & Playback

Recording & Playback lets users record a PolySpatial PlayMode session to a file, and then play it back. To open the Recording & Playback window, go to Windows > PolySpatial > Recording and Playback.

Recording

Press the Record button to enter Play mode and start recording. Perform interactions and supply input normally, then exit play mode, or press the Stop Recording button to stop recording. A new file will be added to the recordings list. Recordings are saved in Library/PolySpatialRecordings and should be playable on any machine using the same version of the PolySpatial package.

Recording Framerate

Enter a positive Recording Framerate value, and enable Limit Framerate While Recording to limit recording framerate to this value. Otherwise, recording framerate is set to unlimited.

Playback

To replay a recording, select it from the recordings list, and press the Play button. New input won't be processed, but the input encoded in the original recording will replay.

Usages

Among other things, theses files can be submitted to Unity support allowing us to debug many project-specific issues without needing a full zip of your project.
