Mutable - Compile , Cache

Hi Z T,

In the latest versions of 5.5, a compilation should happen automatically when the data is outdated, so users should not have to compile it manually.

Adding the MutableStreamedDataEditor to a source control system will probably lock the file, mark it as read-only, and prevent further updates. It may not work unless the CO and its dependencies remain unchanged.

We understand that it is less than ideal for users to compile the CO locally to see updates when in PIE. Recently, we added DDC support for editor compilations to address that issue. In the upcoming 5.6 release, if the compiled data is outdated, the CO will try to pull an updated version from the DDC or compile and upload the compiled data to the DDC.

If possible, I recommend updating to UE 5.6. It has many improvements in terms of UX and performance (runtime and editor). If not, maybe batching CO updates to reduce friction.

Best regards,

Pere
