C++ Logs

The plugin also adds useful macros for use in C++

TRACE(YourCategory, "My text with %s and %d", *myString, myInt);
TRACEWARN(YourCategory, "My text with %s and %d", *myString, myInt);
TRACEERROR(YourCategory, "My text with %s and %d", *myString, myInt);

Warning

These macros don't work in static functions and in places where GetWorld() can't be obtained!

If you need to output something to console in a static function use the following:

TRACESTATIC(YourCategory, "My text with %s and %d", *myString, myInt);

Note

In this case, the macro will not display your network mode (Standalone, Client, Server) in the console, but will still display the full name of the function.

The plugin provides two macros for displaying on the screen:

SCREENDEBUG("My text with %s and %d", *myString, myInt);  // Duration: 5.0f
SCREENDEBUGT("My text with %s and %d", *myString, myInt); // Duration: 0.0f

SCREENDEBUGT

The second method can be used in Tick()
