Usage of Payload

How to use the Payload obje

Network Environment

Keep in mind when using UObjects as payloads that they're not replicated, you either have to make your own replication for UObjects or use a replicated Actor (although this isn't recommended). If you choose to use Actors as payloads, make sure to destroy it if it's not in use anymore!

We are recommending to use theMessageinput instead to transfer any simple informations!

Make sure you have read the Implementation Guide before proceeding with any examples for optimal results!

1. Bind the event SaveScore in BeginPlay():

Add it to your Blueprint

1. Implement the OnEventCalled() event and add one of the two code examples:

It is recommended to use Interfaces instead of casting!

Done! Now you can use CallEvent() everywhere you want and pass a BPO_MyPayload to it like this:

If you cache a reference to a Payload for any reason, make sure to clear the variable as it won't be collected by the Garbage Collector otherwise.

For this example I placed this into the Level Blueprint
