Linux: C# debugging [solved]

After my first successful Unity test game, I first like to learn how to debug the C# code from Unity. Unfortunately, Unity does not offer an Editor or a Debugger - you have to choose , install, configure one you think is good yourself, alas.

So I played with VisualStudioCode for Linux as this seems to be the "state of the art" editor for Unity. I managed VSCode to open when I edit a script in Unity. I also updated VSCode to support "C# plugin". But I can't get it to debug! I double clicked a line of code but nothing happens when I "play" the game in Unity.

Then I read about the free VSCode asset to debug with VSCode:
https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/utilities/vscode-45320
https://dzone.com/articles/debugging-unity-3d-with-vscode

So, I got this in the web browser and see the asset in the web browser of my account. But even restarting my local UNityHub, there is nothing unter "Assets". I wonder how this "Unity Hub" in my browser is connected to the local UnityHub on my local PC. How does this Assets get to my local UnityHub?

 

Well, I never thought this would be so hard to establicsh. No matter what I do, UNity is never showing up this VSCode feature. (https://github.com/dotBunny/VSCode)

Is there a working setup to be able to debug C# code in Unity? I can't believe that game developer studios use Unity without a proper debugging feature ...

 

Ok, forget all this VSCode stuff ... I managed it to get working with the free "Debugger for Unity" plugin for VSCode:

Now I can debug the Unity C# scripts on Ubuntu 20.04 Linux, with UnityHUb for Linux, VSCode for Linux without any further .NET Core stuff to install.

 

Could you please explain me the detailed debugging process? I'm not able to make it work

I installed Unity 2019.4.22 on Ubuntu 20.04 and I have also installed Debugger for Unity plugin for VSCode.

I double-clicked one of the.cs files of my project in Unity in order to open it with VSCode.

After VSCode was opened, I selected the green Play button in the .NET Core Attach options list and, in the options appeared to the right, I selected the first "code" option I saw (/usr/share/code/code -g --no-sandbox /home/larami100/shapesMarkerArray/home/larami100/s... (I have attached a screenshot)

After that, VSCode borders get an orange color but any breakpoint is called if I clicked on the Play button in Unity Editor.

What I'm doing wrong? I hope you could help me, please.
