How to Run with debug?

[colin9876]

I noticed the project list includes a clickbox to include debug info.
Does this mean I can monitor variable calculations step by step?
If so wheres the RUN in debug option, or how do I get it to display this info?

There isn't a runtime debug facility at the momment. The debug information is used when there is a runtime exception to display the line number and code in the message box. Without it you just get the Sub name where the error occurred. Including the information significantly increases the size of the compiled code.

Ah ok that explains it. Do you think that the debug info slows it down much?
I dont mind the extra file size, but in games etc to maximize speed I would uncheck it if you think it has a time overhead?

Yes, including it it does have some performance overhead.
