i want my method in the follwoing code to run longer than a microsecond so i can test stuff with it(I don't want to run it to run in the Update() method)

Question

I am currently trying to test different rotations before beginning the game and i would like my move() method to run for a longer time than it for the processor to process it. Here is the code:

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class PlayerController : MonoBehaviour
 {
     [SerializeField] private float speed;
     Quaternion[] Rotation;
     Vector3 Rotate;
     public bool loading = false;
     // Start is called before the first frame update
     void Start()
     {
         
     }
 
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update()
     {
         Move();// How do i  make this run longer without putting it in the update method
     }
     public void Loading()
     {
         float i;
         loading = true;
         Tester();
         for(i = 0; i <= Rotation.Length; i++)
         {
             // i will fill this later with other code
         }
     }
     void Tester()
     {
         Rotate = new Vector3(0, 0, 0);
         Rotation[0] = Quaternion.Euler(Rotate);
         Rotate = new Vector3(0, 0, 90);
         Rotation[1] = Quaternion.Euler(Rotate);
         Rotate = new Vector3(0, 0, -90);
         Rotation[2] = Quaternion.Euler(Rotate);
         Rotate = new Vector3(0, 0, 180);
         Rotation[3] = Quaternion.Euler(Rotate);
     }
     void Move()
     {
         transform.position += transform.right * speed * Time.deltaTime;
     }
 }

Please only post questions once... duplicate...

Either way, given your other description i think i understand what you want though i don't really get why you want it. Why not keep it in Update?

What you can do is the following:

  IEnumerator Move()
  {
      while(true) {
            transform.position += transform.right * speed * Time.deltaTime;
             yield return null;
       }
  }

and then write:

  void Start()
  {
         StartCoroutine(Move());
  }

then your thing will move without the need for Update. Though this does exactly the same basically.
