[[Debugging Techniques]] are ways in which developers can debug, or find out where errors or unexpected outcomes are occurring within their scripts.
{{Feature|informative|To go on [[Initialisation Order]].}}
{{note|Debugging is the process of finding and resolving defects or problems within a computer program that prevent correct operation of computer software or a system – ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title{{=}}Debugging Wikipedia - Debugging]''}}

An error in SQF '''will''' purely and simply '''halt''' the current script, leading to unpredictable behaviour.
|-
An error is not something that should happen, as it can hinder performance as well as break a mission. So if you encounter one, do not overlook it by saying "it's a minor one"; your script '''will''' stop.

Debugging is usually as complicated as writing the actual code itself. You usually get hinted by the game, where some error happened, and what it was.<br />
|- style="background-color: #95F0AD"
There are instances where actual error reason might be something completely different than announced (eg. you get the error on a variable being [[nil]] somewhere, but the actual error is that you mistyped it where you set it initially).
| [[Event Scripts#init.sqf|init.sqf]] is executed
| [[Scheduler#Scheduled Environment|Scheduled]]<ref name="enginewaits">Note '''in single player''' that while the environment is [[Scheduler#Scheduled Environment|Scheduled]] ([[canSuspend]] returns true), the engine seems to wait until the script is done executing, essentially behaving similarly to an [[Scheduler#Unscheduled Environment|Unscheduled environment]] - infinite loops will freeze the game, [[uiSleep]] may pause the game for up to ~20s (postInit), [[waitUntil]] can cause catastrophic issues, etc.</ref>

A script error will greet you with this box:
|- style="background-color: #95DEF0"
[[File:A3_ScriptErrorMsg.jpg|thumb|Script error message|center|500px]]
| Persistent functions are called
|
| <!-- Single Player -->

| <!-- JIP MP Client -->


It tells you what went wrong, shows a snippet of the code that failed and, unless you used a command combination like eg. {{Inline code|[[compile]] [[loadFile]]}}, what file and line it occured on.
|-
Knowing this, you now can proceed to find the actual reason why that specific piece of code errored.
| [[Modules]] are initialised
 
|
{{informative|This information can also be found in the RPT log.}}
| <!-- Single Player -->
 
| <!-- Dedicated Server -->
To solve an issue, you must first find out there is one. Besides your script not having the wanted effect (if any), an error message helps you locate the code issue.
| <!-- Hosted Server -->
* Be sure to use [[Arma 3 Startup Parameters#Developer Options|<tt>-showScriptErrors</tt>&nbsp;startup&nbsp;parameter]] to display the error on-screen
| <!-- Multiplayer Client -->
* To ensure error location in your script, prefer [[preprocessFileLineNumbers]] to [[preprocessFile]]
| {{Icon|unchecked}} <!-- JIP MP Client -->
* Read [[Crash Files|RPT files]] for more information (make sure [[Arma 3 Startup Parameters#Performance|<tt>-noLogs</tt> startup parameter]] is '''not''' enabled or the logs will never be filled)
** Scripts running on a server use the '''Arma''X''Server.RPT''' file which has varying location depending upon the type of server being run.
** Scripts running on a client use the '''Arma''X''.RPT''' file.

| [[remoteExec]]'s [[Multiplayer Scripting#Join In Progress|JIP]] queue
The most simple thing you can do is to output expected values. This can be done using for example [[diag_log]] or [[systemChat]].
| {{n/a}}
Output yourself a few [[Variables|variables]] that relate to your problem (for example: When the error occurs because you land in some [[if]] block, output the corresponding variables inside of the if).
| {{n/a}} <!-- Single Player -->
You continue doing this until you hit the actual problem: When [[Variables|variable]] A is not set, go to where [[Variables|variable]] A gets set and check around there, repeat and continue.

{{Informative|
If you're having great difficulty solving a problem, the good way is to bring the issue to the simplest code;
take the mission part that doesn't work, paste it into a new test mission and work from here.
Doing so will save you dealing with other scripts' potential side effects!}}

=== Working with Addons ===
| <!-- Multiplayer Client -->
If you are working on an addon, repacking a PBO can be time-intensive.
| <!-- JIP MP Client -->
This operation can be replaced simply by creating a basic mission in the "Missions" or "MPmissions" (if your feature is multiplayer-specific) folder of your game installation, and running the mission locally.
The easiest way of accomplishing this is by the use of [[Event Scripts]] to run your code such as [[init.sqf]].
Once you have tested your code this way, you can then sequentially pack your PBO when major changes have been made, rather than for each debug session of a script or piece of code.
 
=== Debugging specific sections of code ===
 
Although primitive, the combined use of [[diag_log]], [[systemChat]]/[[hint]] and [[format]] can help to debug the content of function arguments.
In the case that specific pieces of code do not run, or if specific ''if'' conditions don't appear to fire, debugging the variable content with [[diag_log]] can be useful.
As with all debugging, as long as the developer is methodical and logical in checking each section of code that runs, finding bugs and resolving them can be straightforward.
