unreal.Subsystem

class unreal.Subsystem(outer=None, name='None')

Bases: unreal.Object

Subsystems are auto instanced classes that share the lifetime of certain engine constructs

Currently supported Subsystem lifetimes are:

Engine -> inherit UEngineSubsystem Editor -> inherit UEditorSubsystem GameInstance -> inherit UGameInstanceSubsystem World -> inherit UWorldSubsystem LocalPlayer -> inherit ULocalPlayerSubsystem

Normal Example:

class UMySystem : public UGameInstanceSubsystem

Which can be accessed by:

UGameInstance* GameInstance = …; UMySystem* MySystem = GameInstance->GetSubsystem<UMySystem>();

or the following if you need protection from a null GameInstance

UGameInstance* GameInstance = …; UMyGameSubsystem* MySubsystem = UGameInstance::GetSubsystem<MyGameSubsystem>(GameInstance);

You can get also define interfaces that can have multiple implementations. Interface Example :

MySystemInterface

With 2 concrete derivative classes:

MyA : public MySystemInterface MyB : public MySystemInterface

Which can be accessed by:

UGameInstance* GameInstance = …; const TArray<UMyGameSubsystem*>& MySubsystems = GameInstance->GetSubsystemArray<MyGameSubsystem>();
