Functions

Native functions

DeProject

native final function DeProject (Object.Vector2D RelativeScreenPos, out Object.Vector WorldOrigin, out Object.Vector WorldDirection)

transforms 2D screen coordinates into a 3D world-space origin and direction

Parameters:

• ScreenPos - relative screen coordinates (0 to 1, relative to this player's viewport region)
• WorldOrigin - out) - world-space origin vector
• WorldDirection - out) - world-space direction vector

Note: use the Canvas version where possible as it already has the necessary information, whereas this function must gather it and is therefore slower

GetActorVisibility

native final function bool GetActorVisibility (Actor TestActor) const

Tests the visibility state of an actor in the most recent frame of this player's view to complete rendering.

Parameters:

• TestActor - The actor to check visibility for.

Returns:

True if the actor was visible in the frame.

GetPostProcessChain

native function PostProcessChain GetPostProcessChain (int InIndex)

Get the PPChain at the given index.

Parameters:

• InIndex - The index of the chain to retrieve.

Returns:

PostProcessChain The post process chain if found; NULL if not.

InsertPostProcessingChain

native function bool InsertPostProcessingChain (PostProcessChain InChain, int InIndex, bool bInClone)

Add the given post process chain to the chain at the given index.

Parameters:

• InChain - The post process chain to insert.
• InIndex - The position to insert the chain in the complete chain. If -1, insert it at the end of the chain.
• bInClone - If TRUE, create a deep copy of the chains effects before insertion.

Returns:

boolean TRUE if the chain was inserted FALSE if not

RemoveAllPostProcessingChains

native function bool RemoveAllPostProcessingChains ()

Remove all post process chains.

Returns:

boolean TRUE if the chain array was cleared FALSE if not

RemovePostProcessingChain

native function bool RemovePostProcessingChain (int InIndex)

Remove the post process chain at the given index.

Parameters:

• InIndex - The position to insert the chain in the complete chain.

Returns:

boolean TRUE if the chain was removed FALSE if not

SendSplitJoin

native final function SendSplitJoin ()

sends a splitscreen join command to the server to allow a splitscreen player to connect to the game the client must already be connected to a server for this function to work

Note: this happens automatically for all viewports that exist during the initial server connect so it's only necessary to manually call this for viewports created after that if the join fails (because the server was full, for example) all viewports on this client will be disconnected

SpawnPlayActor

native final function bool SpawnPlayActor (string URL, out string OutError)

TouchPlayerPostProcessChain

native function TouchPlayerPostProcessChain ()

Forces the PlayerPostProcess chain to be rebuilt. This should be called if a PPChain is retrieved using the GetPostProcessChain, and is modified directly.

Events

GetNickname

final event string GetNickname ()

retrieves this player's name/tag from the online subsytem if this function returns a non-empty string, the returned name will replace the "Name" URL parameter passed around in the level loading and connection code, which normally comes from DefaultEngine.ini

GetUniqueNetId

final event OnlineSubsystem.UniqueNetId GetUniqueNetId ()

retrieves this player's unique net ID from the online subsystem

Other instance functions

ClearPostProcessSettingsOverride

simulated function ClearPostProcessSettingsOverride ()

Clear the overriding of the post process settings.

OverridePostProcessSettings

simulated function OverridePostProcessSettings (PostProcessVolume.PostProcessSettings OverrideSettings, float StartBlendTime)

Overrides the current post process settings.

SetControllerId

final function SetControllerId (int NewControllerId)

Changes the ControllerId for this player; if the specified ControllerId is already taken by another player, changes the ControllerId for the other player to the ControllerId currently in use by this player.

Parameters:

• NewControllerId - the ControllerId to assign to this player.

UpdateOverridePostProcessSettings

simulated function UpdateOverridePostProcessSettings (PostProcessVolume.PostProcessSettings OverrideSettings)

Update the override post process settings
