In the ShooterGame Example, it has a custom Session class, with a bunch of session related variables in it.  
I would like to do the same for my game but currently I implement creation, searching, ect of sessions purely by blueprint in UMG widget blueprint panels.  
The Create Session node does not have a session input, so I was wondering if there is currently a way to tell it what class of Session to create?

In ShooterGameMode.cpp

/\*\* Returns game session class to use \*/  
TSubclassOf AShooterGameMode::GetGameSessionClass() const  
{  
return AShooterGameSession::StaticClass();  
}
