If your project isn't working how it should be, you can use a debug window to see where your project has gone wrong

If you use other languages it is like printing the value of a variable to the console

lol I posted there once and no one else posted there it seems

This is the first post with 2 and a half pages of just arguing about something that isn't even relevant to the suggestion that I have seen lol.

Anyways,

I personally think this would be nice. I use this in other programming languages, and it helps debugging a lot. It would most likely do the same here.

I do think that the logs shouldn't be there by default, as it could be confusing. But if the log block is used in a project, it pops up.

Thats just my 3 cents
What?

EDIT:

That isnt a dupe, This is a block that can write to a log. That suggestion is only logging things that run. (broadcasts, flag, stop, variables, ect)

I don't know how to use a debug window, I use other languages and I'm used to tracking the bug manually.

I understand, so a debug window prints the data of all variables so you can see what's wrong? I use other languages and I print the data manually.

If you read the OP, I believe it would act like print() in python, console.log() in JS, System.out.println() in Java, std::cout << in C++, printf() in C.. do I need to keep going?

If you support you say support and why
They have the right to refrain from saying why they support; your response was unnecessary and spam.
No. You are completely wrong. Being constructive should be enforced.
Where is it in the rules you have to say the reason why? They have the right of speech, this is not in the terms of use or community guidlines.

(Actually, they did say why they semi-supported, but I was too lazy to point that out).
But you should be constructive, and there is a whole section about being constructive in the CG

Fine:
I support beacuse it can be annoying showing and hiding the log list while running the project, but I think using lists is a decent workaround that takes just one block, so that's why I don't think this feature is that necessary.
Was it really necessary to write two pages to get me to write an extra line of text?
