This function intelligently outputs debug messages into the Debug Console. It is similar to outputDebugString, but outputs useful information for any variable type, and does not require use of Lua's tostring. This includes information about element types, and table structures. It is especially useful for quick debug tasks.

Syntax

 iprint ( )

Code Examples

server

This example prints some sample debug messages, assuming the server is running a typical freeroam/play environment:

function resourceStartNotify ( resourcename )
  -- Example of outputting tables, and elements directly
  iprint(getElementsByType("player"))
  iprint(getElementsByType("vehicle"))
  -- Example of outputting multiple items at once
  iprint("this resource:",getThisResource(),"state:",getResourceState(getThisResource()),"resource root:",getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()))
end
addEventHandler( "onResourceStart", getRootElement(), resourceStartNotify )
