Debugging using 2d Text over entities

Help & Support
1

Hi, there is only so much that the console.logs can help with and sometimes its necessary to display debug info inside the game attached to specific entities.

I need to be able to easily create a piece of debug text on the UI which positions itself at the each of my 3d entities all the time so I can track exactly what each instance is doing.

How do I do this easily? I would have thought it must have been asked for many times before but I cant find anything.

Thanks

Hi @Grimmy,

Not sure if there is an easier way, but you could create a utility/debug script based on this example project:
