Newb Question - Run Options

Robot Mesh Studio
#1

I have created this topic since I am a newb to all this and not afraid to ask those basic questions.

The question I have today is about sending programs to a brain. When I connect a brain to my computer these are the options I get from the download dropdown arrow (tried to upload a screenshot but did not go through)

As I was saying, these are the options I get
*Run: run build program and run with the debugger
*Run Fast: build program and run without debugger
*Download: build program and download only

Whereas when my colleague hits the same dropdown button below the Run icon he has the following options,
*Run: build program and run (no debugger)
*Download: build and download to the real robot.

Why the difference?

Apparently the screen show worked.

This is what my colleague has

Debugger support is language and platform specific, and it can also be disabled if the project is copied from a project that does not permit debugger support. Copy permissions for derived projects can be set through Options -> Copied Project Restrictions. Otherwise the debugger is only enabled for Blockly and Python projects, and never for Javascript and C++ projects.

To provide further insight, I would probably need links to the projects themselves (that have been set to public visibility through Options->Privacy dropdown).
