Pooled Actor

Base:
AActor
Type:
ANPooledActor
Header File:
NexusActorPools/Public/NPooledActor.h

A specialized AActor base-class designed to work seamlessly with a FNActorPool.

What It Is​

  • Base Actor Class: Inherits from AActor to provide all standard functionality.
  • Pool-Ready: Implements the INActorPoolItem interface, making it fully compatible with actor pools.

Key Benefits​

  • Drop-in Replacement: Can be used anywhere you'd use a regular AActor, but with pool optimization built-in.
  • Automatic Management: Handles edge cases like world boundaries automatically by returning to the pool.
  • Blueprint Inheritance: Can be extended in Blueprint to create custom pooled actor types.
  • Consistent Behavior: Ensures all pooled actors follow the same lifecycle patterns.
