Where is the camera?

Hi!

I’m using Unreal 5.2.1 with Blueprints.

I’m checking an example. There is a level with no camera neither player controller:

But, when I play it on the editor I can see everything without setting a camera:

My question is:

Is a camera generated by default?

I’m asking this because I’m trying to understand how cameras work on levels: if I have to set a default camera, or how to set it, etc.

Thanks!!

Yes, everything that has an yellowish color is spawned at runtime.
These classes can be defined in a Game Mode.

In this case, it looks like the Game Mode is BP_SimpleGameMode, which spawned BP_SimplePawn. BP_SimplePawn most probably would have the camera in this case.


I would suggest watching an Editor Basics tutorial to get yourself familiarized with the editor and the Gameplay Framework.
