Inspect all fields, properties and methods in Unity editor
Sidekick Inspection Tools for Unity
Sidekick is a set of tools that allow you to edit fields, properties and invoke methods in Unity's editor. It extends Unity's philosophy of real-time run-time editing and inspection by allowing you to edit much more than just serialised fields.
Edit fields and properties
Inspect and edit fields and properties on components, including statics and many more than natively supported in Unity's inspector
Inspect hidden objects
Selection helpers allow you to select hidden assets that can't be selected in the Project window as well as runtime objects (such as Editor Windows, Scene Views, custom Editors, ECS Systems, etc) allowing you to debug and inspect all sorts of editor nuances.
Modify Entities (ECS)
Sidekick supports writing to the fields on ECS Entities, simply select an entity in the Entity Debugger with Sidekick open and the fields will be displayed and change be dynamically changed.
Fire methods and events
Fire arbitrary methods on components with support for parameters and return types

Remote Actions
Previously we were hoping to include to make Sidekick work with remote builds, this however massively complicated the simplicity of Sidekick and the project has been abandoned. The network code has been split out into Remote Actions
