Visual Debugger is a tool allowing developers to debug their Godot projects while the application is running in the editor or in a build. There are GPU accelerated particles in Godot, but they don't support collisions.

Exporting C# projects to iOS should be done from macOS using the classical workflow , and the scripts will be automatically compiled Ahead-of-Time (AOT) for iOS. Such pointer could be reported as valid even though the memory it points to was not, or worse, that memory could now hold a different object, leading to hard to debug situations.
