I created a Particle system using Niagara and this system has different dynamic user parameters. I know how to change these parameters at runtime using say: UNiagaraComponent->SetNiagaraVariableFloat(),
but the variable I have to change now is a Color Array.
How do I go about changing this variable at runtime given that the available methods don’t seem to cover editing this type?
I get the sense I am missing something very obvious.
Figured it out, the method to set a Color Array parameter in Niagara (along with a whole bunch of other data types) can be done through
UNiagaraDataInterfaceArrayFunctionLibrary
I just needed to use method:
UNiagaraDataInterfaceArrayFunctionLibrary::SetNiagaraArrayColor(UNiagaraComponent* NiagaraSystem, FName OverrideName, const TArray& ArrayData)
The particle system works now.
