======Debug Console======
----

The **debug console** is a tool that allows you to run scripts in-game for testing and debugging scenarios. It is enabled by default but can be disabled from the [[Game Configuration]]. When enabled, you can press the tilde key (~) to bring up the console while playing your game. To use the console, simply enter a script into the text box and press enter to trigger it. See [[Scripting Reference]] for more information about the functions that are currently available.

When running a [[script]] from the debug console, the **self** built-in variable will contain the [[entity]] located at the mouse cursor's current position.

This feature is a useful way to test the effect of certain functions/parameters before creating a script (for example, the timing/appearance of a light color change) or to troubleshoot an issue by displaying the value of a property at a specific point in time as shown in the example image below.
