I’m starting to learn niagara, and i’d like to know, if there are ways to get the variables of an niagara system from inside a blueprint.
I already know the “Export Particle Data to Blueprint”-Module.
And although it works fine, it only works inside Particle Update.
Which means, in situations, where the emitter doesn’t have any particles, it won’t fire.
Are there other ways to get the value of a variable?
The export module can’t be used in the emitter section because it uses some particle attributes under the hood for bookkeeping and default values - but the actual export data interface works fine for emitters without particles. So you can just make a scratch pad script in your emitter and use the data interface directly.
