Need help for making Singleton style UObject and other problems.

If you double-click GameManagerBP in content browser you can set the defaults. Just in case you’re not aware. Also btw, if you change data in the singleton in-game, it will stay persistent even when you leave the game and only restarting the editor will reset it. Personally to get around that I manually reset the data in my GameMode EndPlay event.

all of sudden, another instance of UObject(Animation Manager in my Singleton) is gone every time I hit play button… this is chaos why my singleton does not work as predicted…

There is a method you can override in your GameMode:


virtual void EndPlay(const EEndPlayReason::Type EndPlayReason) override;

So make a custom game mode in C++ inheriting from AGameMode and then override this method. Then you can do something like this:


void AYourGameMode::EndPlay(const EEndPlayReason::Type EndPlayReason)
{
	Super::EndPlay(EndPlayReason);

	if (EndPlayReason == EEndPlayReason::EndPlayInEditor)
	{
		// Reset your data
	}
}
