Hm no, for example the ShooterWeapon.h. There are bool like this:

/** inifite ammo for reloads */
	UPROPERTY(EditDefaultsOnly, Category=Ammo)
	bool bInfiniteAmmo;

	/** infinite ammo in clip, no reload required */
	UPROPERTY(EditDefaultsOnly, Category=Ammo)
	bool bInfiniteClip;

and there are uint32 like this:

/** is fire sound looped? */
	UPROPERTY(EditDefaultsOnly, Category=Sound)
	uint32 bLoopedFireSound : 1;

	/** is fire animation looped? */
	UPROPERTY(EditDefaultsOnly, Category=Animation)
	uint32 bLoopedFireAnim : 1;

Both representing bools if i’m not wrong. But i don’t see why there are uint32 and not bools.

bLoopedFireAnim is set to true/false inside the cpp.
Also bInfiniteAmmo is set to true/false inside the cpp.

So they are both used as normal bools. :confused:
