I am considering how to optimize engine performance. I don’t know a programming language, and I have only been familiar with the blueprint. Recently, I saw the node “garbage collection” in the blueprint, and I searched for related concepts, but they were all C++, but I didn’t find the blueprint. So I am very frustrated, so I am here to ask, do you have any knowledge and experience in blueprint garbage collection? I would love to know how it works, thank you all.
Garbage collection is handled automatically by the engine. There is a way to force a Garbage collection, which can be used to collect garbage at points in the game where a hitch would not cause hinderance to gameplay (like during a cutscene/round change. You don’t have to worry about calling garbage collection manually, as the engine already handles this.

Surprise, thank you for the link, I have seen many examples that can be studied here, to make up for some of the problems in the official documents that are not understood. Thank you very much.
