Tick in Game Instance... or UObject?

Development Programming & Scripting C++

Here is a solution :

.h :



UCLASS()
class MYPROJECT_API UMyObject : public UObject, public FTickableGameObject
{
	GENERATED_BODY()

public:
UFUNCTION(BlueprintCallable, Category = Test)
void CallTimer();

void TestTimer();

void Tick(float DeltaTime) override;
bool IsTickable() const override;
bool IsTickableInEditor() const override;
bool IsTickableWhenPaused() const override;
TStatId GetStatId() const override;

UWorld* GetWorld() const override;

float TestCounter;
};

.cpp



void UMyObject::CallTimer()
{
	FTimerHandle tHandle;
	const float Delay = 1.0f;
	GetWorld()->GetTimerManager().SetTimer(tHandle, this, &UMyObject::TestTimer, Delay, false);
}

void UMyObject::TestTimer()
{
	GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(1, 2, FColor::Red, "Hello World");
}

void UMyObject::Tick(float DeltaTime)
{
	TestCounter += DeltaTime;

	GEngine->AddOnScreenDebugMessage(0, 0, FColor::Green, FString::SanitizeFloat(TestCounter));

}

bool UMyObject::IsTickable() const
{
	return true;
}

bool UMyObject::IsTickableInEditor() const
{
	return false;
}

bool UMyObject::IsTickableWhenPaused() const
{
	return false;
}

TStatId UMyObject::GetStatId() const
{
	return TStatId();
}

UWorld* UMyObject::GetWorld() const
{
	return GetOuter()->GetWorld();
}
