<P>			<IMG SRC="Images/PreCondition.png"> MaxCountPerType should be the maximum number of items that can be printed of the same type. Otherwise the result can get bloated and hard to read.
<P>			<IMG SRC="Images/SideEffect.png"> Prints a general report about what exists in the engine to the string buffer.

<P>		<IMG SRC="Images/LeftArrow.png"> int Debug_GetLastNumberOfVisibleLightSources(void);
<P>			<IMG SRC="Images/PostCondition.png"> Returns the number of light sources that passed the view frustum culling test during the last render.

<P>		<IMG SRC="Images/LeftArrow.png"> int Debug_GetLastNumberOfCulledLightSources(void);
<P>			<IMG SRC="Images/PostCondition.png"> Returns the number of light sources that failed the view frustum culling test during the last render.

<P>		<IMG SRC="Images/LeftArrow.png"> int Debug_GetLastNumberOfVisibleInstances(void);
<P>			<IMG SRC="Images/PostCondition.png"> Returns the number of instances that passed the view frustum culling test during the last render. Invisible instances are not counted.

<P>		<IMG SRC="Images/LeftArrow.png"> float Debug_GetPartAllocatedOfDepthAtlas(void);
<P>			This should be used after rendering but before clearing shadows so that you are measuring when there are something allocated.
<P>			0.0 means that 0% of the depth atlas is used.
<P>			0.5 means that 50% of the depth atlas is used.
<P>			1.0 means that 100% of the depth atlas is used.
<P>			x means that (100 * x)% of the depth atlas is used.
<P>			<IMG SRC="Images/PostCondition.png"> Returns how big part of the depth atlas that is currently allocated.
<P>	<IMG SRC="Images/LightBorder.png">
<P>			This should be used after rendering but before clearing shadows because clearing the shadows will remove the data about any denied allocations.
<P>		<IMG SRC="Images/LeftArrow.png"> int Debug_WasDepthAtlasAllocationDenied(void);
<P>			If a shadowcasting lightsource was denied allocation, it will not cast shadows so that light might leak through walls.
<P>			Prevent it by fading away shadows on lesser important light sources using LightSource_SetShadowTransparency, allocating smaller parts of the depth atlas, reducing the total number of shadowcasting light sources.
<P>			<IMG SRC="Images/PostCondition.png"> Returns 1 if a shadowcasting lightsource was denied an allocation to the depth atlas and 0 otherwise.
