Dynamic Reference Component

Base:

UActorComponent

Type:

UNDynamicReferencesComponent

Header File:

NexusDynamicReferences/Public/NDynamicReferencesComponent.h

A component which registers and unregisters the owning AActor with the UNDynamicReferencesSubsystem for future lookup.

Registration

The component has settings for when the AActor is registered with the UNDynamicReferencesSubsystem and for when it is unregistered. These correspond to different states of the lifecycle of the component, allowing for some other logic to occur before the AActor is referenceable, for example.

Link Phase

Utilizes a ENActorComponentLifecycleStart enumeration to determine when to register.

Setting	Display	Behaviour
ACLS_BeginPlay	Begin Play	Triggers registration during the components BeginPlay() call.
ACLS_InitializeComponent	Initialize Component	Triggers registration during the components InitializeComponent() call.

Break Phase

Utilizes a ENActorComponentLifecycleEnd enumeration to determine when to unregister.

Setting	Display	Behaviour
ACLE_EndPlay	End Play	Triggers unregistering during the components EndPlay() call.
ACLE_UninitializeComponent	Uninitialize Component	Triggers unregistering during the components UninitializeComponent() call.

References

There is no hard limit on the number of reference types (ENDynamicReference) you can apply to a given component.
