Runtime Crash Handler - A small asset for Unity, that catch up all game exceptions and errors, stops game and show window with options.
My Telegram channel if you want more
Crashes in the game are bad. But even worse are hidden crashes.
When something breaks in your game, an unexpected null appears somewhere or something else is unforeseen in the code - if you do not stop the game, the errors can begin to overlap each other and spoil the gameplay very much, generating more and more bugs.
And the player will continue to play the game, and not understand why it does not work as it should.
And if your game has a save system, and the game is saved "broken", then the player can permanently lose his progress in the game, which will lead him to incredible frustration.
Therefore, to avoid such situations, this tool was created.
If something in the game does not go according to plan, and a log like "Error" or "Exception" gets into the console, the game stops and a window is displayed with a description of the error and possible options.
You can write to a player that game is broken and it will no longer behave as expected. Or you can prevent the player from playing further in the game altogether, leaving only the "Exit" button (This is what I recommend doing).
Also, you can add any other options, such as "Send a report", or "Take a screenshot", etc - the asset lends itself very well to modifications, I made all the necessary methods virtual.
There is also an option that puts all "Errors" as notifications on the side, and does not stop the game. This can be useful when you know for sure that bugs in your code won't cascade destroy everything.
- I think everything will be fine on Unity 2020 and above, but tested only for 2022.2
Go to Package Manager -> Add package from GIT url... -> Enter https://github.com/ligofff/SimpleTools-RuntimeCrashHandler.git -> Click Add
You will need to have Git installed and available in your system's PATH.
After install, you will find RuntimeExceptionsHandler folder in your Packages folder.
Open it, then go to Runtime -> Prefabs and just drop RuntimeExceptionsHandler prefab to your scene.
Thats all! Try to broke something in your game now.
If you need to add your own logic to the behavior of an asset, then simply inherit from one of the three available classes, and change what you need.
