 To watch the execution flow for a particular behavior tree of a given entity in the scene, you must open the behavior tree in the Behavior Bricks editor, and select the entity to debug in the Unity´s `Hierarchy` panel. Alternatively, the entity can be selected in the `Debug` tab, by first clicking on the `Refresh List` button and then clicking on the entity name. The `Debug` tab shows a list of the entities in the scene being played which contain a `Behavior Executor` component, grouped by the behavior assigned, as shown in the Figure: To watch the execution flow for a particular behavior tree of a given entity in the scene, you must open the behavior tree in the Behavior Bricks editor, and select the entity to debug in the Unity´s `Hierarchy` panel.

 Once the behavior and the entity have been selected, the state of each node is depicted by changing the color of its bounding box: Once the behavior and the entity have been selected, the state of each node is depicted by changing the color of its bounding box:

 From the `Debug` tab is also possible to pause the execution of an entity behavior by clicking on the `Pause` button next to the entity name. Keep in mind that the pause will start after it finishes its current task. Once you have pressed the pause button you can either `Resume` the behavior or `Tick` it so the behavior receives one update call and then return to pause. From the `Debug` tab is also possible to pause the execution of an entity behavior by clicking on the `Pause` button next to the entity name.

 It is also possible to pause and resume all the entities that use a given behavior by pressing the corresponding `Resume all` or `Pause all` button. It is also possible to pause and resume all the entities that use a given behavior by pressing the corresponding `Resume all` or `Pause all` button.

 While in debug mode it is possible to inspect the value of the parameters of a running tree or the parameters of a particular node in a running tree. The `Blackboard` tab shows the parameters of the selected tree in a given entity (previously selected in the `Debug` tab): While in debug mode it is possible to inspect the value of the parameters of a running tree or the parameters of a particular node in a running tree.

 Finally, for the breakpoint to have effect, the scene has to be played, an entity containing the tree with the breakpoint has to be selected in the `Debug` tab, and the behavior tree has to be opened in the Behavior Bricks editor (it is not required it to be in the active tab of the editor). When the breakpoint is reached, the execution of the scene will be paused. Finally, for the breakpoint to have effect, the scene has to be played, an entity containing the tree with the breakpoint has to be selected in the `Debug` tab, and the behavior tree has to be opened in the Behavior Bricks editor (it is not required it to be in the active tab of the editor).
