What is the difference between AController’s methods GetPawn() and GetControlledPawn()?
In my game, they both successfully return the possessed pawn.
Is it just that GetControlledPawn is BluePrintCallable? In which case, is GetPawn redundant, or is it faster because it is FORCEINLINE?
There was a time where they did different things, but through various refactors they’ve ended up with the same behavior. At this point the difference is that GetPawn() is like just putting Controller->Pawn in your code and you don’t have the overhead of a function call while GetControlledPawn() is callable by blueprints (since an inlined function can’t be a UFUNCTION).
Your pointing this out has made us chat about it and GetControlledPawn() is probably going to get renamed something like K2_GetPawn() to try and make it clearer that it is not really intended for C++ calling.
