Variables

  Type Name Description
Protected variable uint32: 1 bAllowNewSameClassInstance If this is FALSE and we're trying to push a new instance of a given class, but the top of the stack is already an instance of that class ignore the attempted push
Protected variable uint32: 1 bAlwaysNotifyOnFinished If set, action will call OnFinished notify even when ending as FailedToStart
Protected variable TObjectPtr< UBrainComponent > BrainComp : THIS IS HERE ONLY BECAUSE OF THE WAY AI MESSAGING IS CURRENTLY IMPLEMENTED. WILL GO AWAY!
Protected variable uint32: 1 bReplaceActiveSameClassInstance If this is TRUE, when we try to push a new instance of an action who has the same class as the action on the top of the stack, pop the one on the stack, and push the new one NOTE: This trumps bAllowNewClassInstance (e.g. if this is true and bAllowNewClassInstance is false the active instance will still be replaced)
Protected variable uint32: 1 bShouldPauseMovement This is a temporary solution to allow having movement action running in background while there's another action on top doing its thing
Protected variable uint32: 1 bWantsTick TickAction will get called only if this flag is set.
Public variable friend FPawnActionStack  
Protected variable FAIRequestID RequestID  
Protected variable FAIResourcesSet RequiredResources Specifies which resources will be locked by this action.
