OverwatchLog is a logging utility for Unity, providing a more flexible and customizable alternative to Unity's built-in Debug.Log functions. It allows you to log messages with different log types, colors, and context objects.

Features

Log messages with different log types: Log, Warning, Error, Assert, and TrueLog.
Customize log colors using the LogColor enum.
Attach context objects to log messages for better debugging.
More control over which log types to display with the MinLogType property.

Usage

Import the OverwatchLog.cs script into your Unity project.
Use the OverwatchLog.Log, OverwatchLog.Warn, OverwatchLog.Error, OverwatchLog.LogException, and OverwatchLog.Assert methods to log messages with different log types.

OverwatchLog.Log("This is a log message");
OverwatchLog.Warn("This is a warning message");
OverwatchLog.Error("This is an error message");
OverwatchLog.LogException(exception);
OverwatchLog.Assert(condition, "This is an assertion message");

Customize log colors by modifying the LogColor enum.

public enum LogColor
{
    NONE = 0,
    BLUE,
    YELLOW,
    RED,
    GREEN,
    AQUA,
    WHITE,
}

Attach context objects to log messages for better debugging.

OverwatchLog.Log("This is a log message", gameObject);

Control which log types to display by modifying the MinLogType property.

OverwatchLog.MinLogType = OverwatchLogType.Warning;

Differences from Unity's Debug.Log

OverwatchLog provides additional features and flexibility compared to Unity's built-in Debug.Log functions:

Log Types: OverwatchLog introduces different log types such as Warning, Error, Assert, and TrueLog, allowing for better categorization and organization of log messages.
Log Colors: OverwatchLog allows you to customize log colors using the LogColor enum, making it easier to visually distinguish different types of log messages.
Context Objects: OverwatchLog supports attaching context objects to log messages, providing additional information and context for debugging purposes.
MinLogType: OverwatchLog's MinLogType property allows you to control which log types to display, giving you more control over the verbosity of your logs.

Best Practice

It is recommended for Unity headless build to implent this script.

If you are also using Springboot as a part of your Unity game server, this script can also help ya to make the log more obvious.
