Exploring the Niagara Debugger panel
Niagara provides you with a debugger to review particle systems running in your level. The debugger has a bunch of tools to help you look at the simulation data in detail to pinpoint any issues in your particle system.
You can turn on the Debugger panel by going to Tools > Debug > Niagara Debugger.
This will open the dockable Niagara Debugger panel. As with any panel in Unreal, you can dock it to any convenient position.
