I’m working inside an editor utility object BP and I’m trying to get all actor of class, however it asks for a world context object. At the minute I’ve just placed an empty actor BP inside the level and then i’m getting this as a variable and piping it into the world context object but this doesn’t seems to be working.

I’m trying to get a level sequence actor from the level and open it with the press of a button from my monogram console without have to find the actor in level as I don’t want to use get selected actors. Is there something I should be using for world context object? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

GetEditorWorld (UEditorLevelLibrary)  
Should be callable from blueprints as a world context for the editor utility.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately it is not callable from editor utility object BP.

A few weeks ago I read a post of someone who ran into the exact same problem here but I can not remember why the world / context wasn’t working… I see the options are a bit limited.

Usually when I run into a case where I want to find an actor in the level I instead register them to one of my subsystems the moment I spawn them. You could make an editor subsystem which manages the actors directly.

Never worked with subsystems before. Will do some research and see if I can figure it out. Thanks for your help

Hi! Are you sure that you inherited your BP from ActorActionUtility? Cause GetEditorWorld is easily accessible here
