I have just updated from 2.0.09 to 2.0.14b. Which I did only to get access to the debugger. When I start debug I only get an empty player. The one with the agk2 logo and it says unconnected. What am I doing wrong? I really need a working debugger so I can step through my code.

I want to do a debug on the PC I am coding on. Also, the player show no IP when I do this.

BTW, my PC is currently not connected to the Internet or any network. Could that have something to do with it? I should be able to debug locally without though.

I have solved my bugs without the debugger. It turned out that I set the alpha of my sprites below 0 and that looped it up to 255. Shouldn't it be capped or give an error instead?

Still no success with the debugger. But at least I don't need it now.

In Debug mode, if you hit an error before the screen displays, you see the AppGameKit Player. This is also the same if you set a breakpoint before the first Sync()

i think your pc need network, without the game bytecode can not upload into player via network.

Markus is right.

I disabled my network adapter and I got the same result.
I tried to use localhost and 127.0.0.1, but these didn't work.

It's weird to require a network to debug on the same device. It makes it hard to use on travels etc.

Well, I can confirm that setting up a wifi hotspot on a cellphone is enough to run the debugger.

No, it requires you to turn on WiFi on both devices.

DA - I have this problem too. I work on the train during my commute to work so I am rarely connected to a network while running AGK. Having a debugger offline is essential to me so I find it strange why AppGameKit needs a network to debug on a local machine.

When writing the debugger I had some troubles connecting to the loop back interface so it attempts to detect your IP address and connect to itself. I'll see if I can work out the problem.

It uses the network since the mobile devices use it to transfer debug information, and rather than create a separate path for transferring data on the local machine it seemed appropriate to use the same method on the desktop.
