Have you tried ".debug profile"?
|
That also does not work. You can't enter it into the input at all, even with quotes, and a macro with that command doesn't do anything for me while control_freak is on.

As a work-around for now, I'd suggest try using the browser-based profiler. You'll need a browser conttol. It'll open in thr default.
and then, the simple command byond://?debug=profile needs to be ran. This is a built-in client/Topic() call, so be sure to call the parent. | |
Well, in a way, this is expected behaviour, isn't it?
Much of the point of control_freak is that you've restricted macros in general, so this profile function is not available to the host for instance, with control_freak on. Similar to enabling debugging by checking #ifdef DEBUG for adding extra logging, presumably you'd turn off control_freak for a debug build with the same. | |
