Header File:

NexusActorPools/Public/NActorPoolSet.h

A UDataAsset that serves as a collection of preconfigured FNActorPoolSettings to allow for easily warming up FNActorPools with the given context. One compelling usage of these sets is to process a level on save, or cook and determine a good amount of the spawnable actors and create an UNActorPoolSet per level. That way, when a level is loaded, you can apply its UNActorPoolSet and have all of the spawnable AActor prewarmed.

Creating

From the Content Browser, right-click to bring up the context menu and navigate to the NEXUS submenu. From there, you should have an option to create an NActorPool Set.

Editing

By double-clicking on a UNActorPoolSet asset, it will open the default Data Asset editor window. From there, you create entries in the array for the specific AActor and its corresponding settings.

tip

You can nest / link UNActorPoolSets with others, so when one set is applied, the nested UNActorPoolSets will also be used.

Applying

Once you have a valid reference to the desired UNActorPoolSet, you instruct the UNActorPoolSubsystem to apply the given set.
