Adding header and source files from other directories.

[Burnrate]

I've read many posts and seen many topics on this. I've read documentation but nothing seems to work.

My impression is that in the Build.cs you can add

PublicIncludePaths.Add("../my/relative/path/include");

and then in a .h in your project you can

#include "FolderInMyIncludes/MyHeaderFile.h"

It would be great to just do a public and private include path .Add and add and include and source folders and then use those and build the project.

I can't add this as a code without manual modification everytime the external files change.

What am I missing? Why is this so hard?

I know it is possible to use relative paths to get a single .h file included but anything that includes won't have knowledge of it's local path structure so none of the includes in the library will work.
