# Tips and Tricks

Here are some tips I often use with AC and HAP

## Debug Mode

Mostly everything in AC and HAP is debuggable.

When something is not working as expected, check the Debug icon on the component:

With it you will get some Inspector and Console information that will help you track down the problem.

## Use Unity Events

Unity Events on the scripts are very helpful. You can subscribe to them to see if they are sending the values.

I use it very often with Malbers Input and MInput Component, to check if the Inputs are being sent.
