WTF Is? Get all Actors with Interface in Unreal Engine 4 ( UE4 )

very useful

sooo.. it's completely useless for anyone doing anything remotely precedural.

Edit: run-time procedural.

Pretty cool.. i didn't know something like that existed. and that's why this channel is so useful because you show the stuff nobody else does. On a other note i remember you saying you were able to test a level on you android device? how were you able to do that because i followed what it said on the Documentation and it says it was successful but when i go to open it on the device, i just get a black screen that says " Your Splash Screen Here " and then it closes. i know i am clearly doing something wrong i just don't know what?

Before looping through all actors of a class. Is there a way to limit it based on distance from actor to actor.

Is there a get all actors in any direction from an actor, with distance as a parameter?

Some other extensions I would like is:

Get all actors in a straight line certain distance. Again without adding dummy components.

Get all actors outside camera view limited by distance.

Get all actors in front of you in a small range. To explain, not directly in front of you but doesn't extend forever either.


After one of these I would then do get all actors of class. So are there any common methods you use or unique node operations you're aware of? What would be a core point I need to comprehend or understand to do these now and the future.

Also, I want to do this by hand, but are there any plugins that do this paid or free?

I'm using this to get actors, that would otherwise be difficult to cast to. I'm making a computer network, for players to hack into within my game. I'm using this, to get the Actor that allows you to toggle through, and possess the network devices. It should only be called once every couple minutes at the most, also, there is unlikely to be more than five in a level. Surely it's unlikely to give me performance issues right?

You are just too good, I will ever be grateful for your help in learning this engine, thanks a bunch, you're the best.
