Best regards,

On MacOSX you can open the Console.app to get a live read-out of the output. On other systems if you start Lux from a command line then you will get a live read out. And the log file is always there (of the last run of Lux).

I just created a JFrame with a TextArea and printed all my debug messages to that

I would love some implementation guidance with the solution offered by 'guest'. I.e., creation of a Java scrolling text widget that I can write to for debug/analysis purposes.

Here is what I do for debugging in Windows. Create an application icon that starts Lux with this command: "C:\WINDOWS\system32\java.exe -jar LuxCore.jar". Also set the start directory to "C:\Program Files\Lux".

When you start Lux this way, all stdout and stderr output will go to the text window in real time. I even use stdin input to pause the game at will.

In the sprefs function were the agent is passed the board create a Frame add a TextArea to it. keep a reference to the text area somewere. call setText or append, etc. Take a look at the TextArea class in the Java API doc.

Thanks Bertrand and guest. I was able to see output from the console. I'll look into the use of a text box a little later.

The log file is quite sparse in terms of reporting gameplay events. All it reports currently is "playerinfo.cardsWereCashed()" without indication of who cashed them, and it also reports when players are eliminated.

I've looked around to try to expand upon the log output, but I can't find out where it's getting created. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
