The Debug Script offers many methods for diagnosing and tracing execution of Papyrus Scripts such as:

Debug.Trace("I'm logged as an INFO message")
Debug.Trace("I'm logged as a WARNING message",1)
Debug.Trace("I'm logged as an ERROR message",0)
Debug.DumpEventRegistrations(self)

However, these methods will not work unless you enable logging:

  1. Open the file : <Documents>\My Games\Fallout 4\Fallout4Custom.ini
  2. Populate the Fallout4Custom.ini file with the following:
[Papyrus]
bEnableLogging=1
bEnableTrace=1
bLoadDebugInformation=1
bEnableProfiling=1
sDefaultLogOverlay=Papyrus

NOTE: Log output from Fallout 4 will be written to <Documents>\My Games\Fallout 4\Logs\Script\
