More Vector3 decimal precision in the Console?

Question

Is there a way to increase the decimal precision in the Console when displaying a Vector3? For example:

Debug.Log(Vector3(0.12345, 0.12345, 0.12345));

Returns:

(0.1, 0.1, 0.1)
UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)

Whereas the much more awkward:

var v:Vector3 = Vector3(0.12345, 0.12345, 0.12345);
Debug.Log("(" + v.x + ", " + v.y + ", " + v.z + ")");

Returns what I would prefer, albeit with a much more awkward syntax:

(0.12345, 0.12345, 0.12345)
UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)

Nope, Vector3's debug is truncated specifically so you don't have to worry about all those in-most-cases-irrelevant digits.

Create your own function called DebugVector3 or some such and call that instead of Debug.Log for vectors.

No need to create your own; Vector3.ToString takes a format specifier. See: http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/58245/more-precise-vector3.html

Just debug each dimension. Like:

Debug.Log(my_vector.x); Debug.Log(my_vector.y); Debug.Log(my_vector.z);
