Open the tools

Run the console command `Crimson.NumberPop.DevTools` during PIE (editor-only — it doesn't exist in packaged builds). The Net Context picker chooses which PIE world you're driving — server or a specific client.

The dev tools window: Net Context picker with Spawn, Filters, and Status tabs.

The three tabs

  • Spawn — fire pops with any value/tags at any actor, through the real replicated path or directly
  • Filters — flip the local player-settings toggles live and watch pops appear/disappear
  • Status — inspect the pool, active pop count, and the loaded registry/widget
The direct path skips filters
Direct spawning bypasses the player-settings filter — use the replicated path when you're testing filter behavior.
What's next
The docs continue with custom widget animations (StartPop / OnPopFinished), server-side culling (ServerCullDistance), and exposing pop options as CrimsonSettings user settings.
