Let's Talk Spectator Screen UI

Thanks for the reply! If I override the retainer box and expose the render it uses will the widget its on update if it’s not attached to anything? Like if I just create a reference to a widget with that contains that retainer box but I never add that to a viewport will it still tick and render itself to the render target?

In my case I do need the SceneCapture2d because I’m trying to use a separate spectator camera, not just a copy of the eye.

Is there a way to format the code properly on this forum? No matter what I tried it kept pushing it all to 1 line. Here it is in pastebin links if that helps:
SpectatorCamera.h
SpectatorCamera.cpp

Your right I’m not really cleaning up that renderer, but there’s only one instance of this class and from my understanding it only creates that renderer once. Would that really balloon my ram usage like what I’m seeing?

You can still attach it to a viewport and just not let it draw out its contents, but manually rendering it like you are attempting to do is likely better in the end.

Also no, I had missed that you were doing that in the constructor since everything was in one line. Your issue would have to be outside of that class, I don’t see anything wrong with it.
