Profiling CPU Usage.

Currently my upcoming mod simply kills your fps. How does one profile the CPU usage to determine which part of the code is consuming the most CPU?

By running the game in a profiler and compiling with the proper settings.

To my knowledge you'd need the unity profiler window to profile a unity game?

That sounds reasonable but I really don't know and haven't tried. I can only give you general answers as far as mono/unity is concerned.

Get a unity tutorial. Make a unity project according to such tutorial. Check the unity docs for things related to profiling.

Interesting, I thought profiler hooks were only inserted in debug builds.

Next time I need to profile something I'll try attaching a profiler and see if it spews errors out of every orifice.
