Camera Control Error: System.Nullreferenceexception:

@DJ
I get this repeating error message when I use object recognition and the smart variable watcher at the same time?

Code:

Camera: Camera Control Error: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The smart variable watcher is the error - not the camera. The smart variable watcher intercepts variable events. While it's useful for debugging, it can cause errors and performance problems when used. I can take a look but there's probably not much I can do. Probably the best idea is to have a smart variable watcher that allows you to select what variables to watch. That way it isn't showing the entire variable stack.

It is not a major problem and it does not interfere as far as I can tell.  The interesting thing is that if I use the normal variable watcher I dont get any errors.

Yah I was gonna say the original watcher probably Won’t give this errors. It’s cause the smart one works differently. I’ll take a look and see anyway. I’m not a fan of errors
