Fusion Inspector is a powerful debugging and visualization tool that gives you deep, real-time insight into your Photon Fusion projects. In this tutorial, we walk through everything you need to know to use Fusion Inspector effectively—from installation to advanced filtering and optimization workflows.

Using the Asteroids Simple sample project, you’ll learn how to inspect networked scene objects, audit prefabs before they spawn, and analyze every NetworkBehaviour in your project. Fusion Inspector helps you understand networked state size, authority, RPC usage, and runtime state changes, making it an essential tool for optimizing bandwidth and performance in multiplayer games.

In this video, you’ll learn:

• What Fusion Inspector is and how to install the latest version
• How to use the Scene Objects, Prefabs, and Components sections
• How to analyze networked state size and runtime state changes
• How to filter and sort objects and components to find performance bottlenecks
• How to inspect Fusion method overrides and interface implementations
• Practical workflows for tracking network traffic and component usage
• Advanced tips like docking the inspector and using multiple windows

Fusion Inspector works in both Edit Mode and Play Mode, giving you powerful runtime statistics preventively and during live gameplay sessions.

Whether you’re debugging networking issues, optimizing bandwidth, or just trying to better understand how your Fusion project behaves at runtime, Fusion Inspector is an invaluable tool in your multiplayer development workflow.
