Disable All print nodes globally!?

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint
1

Hi All,

is there a way to globally disable all print nodes from doing their thing?
I have quite a lot of debug print’s scattered all over but I now want to make a build that does not have them spewing out a lot of messages on screen.

Is there a way to do this globally to avoid having to trawl through all blueprints in the game?

Cheers

Do they even work in packaged version? I don’t think so. At least they never did in my projects.

If you chose the shipping option then it will disable them. If you chose development, call the console command “disableallscreenmessages”.

Thanks both of you for the tips!
I just tried building for shipping and indeed that worked.
Thanks for the command tip as well I’ll try that out too.

Cheers

Use visual debugger, or make your own print node (function or macro) and add global debug switch.

It’s manual which is not ideal but I’ve been packaging this way for some time now. No issues. UE5.1 approved.
