This is what I'm looking for, I'll try it.

When you get the file path of Robot Main in Robot Main, if it is built and running in the robot project the second to last string in the file path will be projectName.exe, whereas if you were running it in debug mode (manually running Robot Main) the second to last string in the file path will be the folder the project is in. You should be able to get the file path, strip it twice, and search the second stripped string for ".exe". If you are running a build the index will be greater than 0 (it exists somewhere in the string). If it is running in debug mode, the index will be -1 (search string isn't in source string). You can then save this bool as a global, carry it into teleop and/or periodic, or do whatever you want with it. Let me know if this works.

EDIT: I think this is what you are looking for without using any complicated property nodes. There may be other ways to do the same thing using property nodes or otherwise, and you should feel free to use whichever you feel is easier. My original suggestion about removing this code from the final project still stands.

I want to try your method but I don't have enough experience with LabVIEW strings. Can you post here the code that does what you have explained?
