How can I make an event automatically show up when deriving a new Blueprint from a class like the engine default ones (Shown below)?
Is there some kind of function decorator or meta descriptor I can use in C++ to make these show up? Or is it only for these specific functions?
My goal is to create a class that others on my team could blueprint and immediately know which events to override without having to manually add them.
For anyone interested, I found an ini file (EditorPerProjectUserSettings.ini) with some lines that were helpful
Under the “Default Nodes” section, I found some useful lines formatted as such:
+nodes ([class] [node])
[DefaultEventNodes]
+Node=(TargetClass=Actor TargetEvent="ReceiveBeginPlay")
The only downside is that it only works with C++ classes, not blueprinted classes. Oh well, I’ll keep looking, but at least I found out how that node gets generated.
I’m also looking for that information.
Any other way of doing this? I tried adding an entry to this but every time I open a newly created child class of the TargetClass it just crashes the editor for me. I used the same UFUNCTION parameters that ReceiveBeginPlay used as well.
You can try this, but will require C++
there’s also a project setting to disable them altogether (<3 thanks so much!)
i can’t find the .ini to change it in my project. but via the engine works.
The EditorPerProjectUserSettings.ini in the project is in the Saved/Config/WindowEditor folder but it doesn’t have the section of Default Event Nodes
