Public Functions Documentation

function USMStateInstance_Base

USMStateInstance_Base()

---

function PostLoad

virtual void PostLoad() override

Reimplemented by: USMConduitInstance::PostLoad, USMStateMachineInstance::PostLoad

---

function IsInEndState

virtual bool IsInEndState() const override

Deprecated:

Use either IsEndState() or USMStateMachineInstance::IsStateMachineInEndState() depending on use case.

Reimplements: USMNodeInstance::IsInEndState

---

function OnStateBegin

void OnStateBegin()

Called when the state is started.

---

function OnStateUpdate

void OnStateUpdate(
    float DeltaSeconds
)

Called when the state is updated.

Parameters:

DeltaSeconds

Time delta in seconds from the last update.

---

function OnStateEnd

void OnStateEnd()

Called when the state is ending. It is not advised to switch states during this event. The state machine will already be in the process of switching states.

---

function IsEndState

bool IsEndState() const

If this state is considered an end state.

---

function GetStateInfo

void GetStateInfo(
    FSMStateInfo & State
) const

Return read only information about the owning state.

---

function IsStateMachine

bool IsStateMachine() const

Checks if this state is a state machine.

---

function IsEntryState

bool IsEntryState() const

If this state is an entry state within a state machine.

---

function SetActive

void SetActive(
    bool bValue,
    bool bSetAllParents =false,
    bool bActivateNow =true
)

Force set the active flag of this state. This call is replicated and can be called from the server or from a client. The caller must have state change authority.

When calling from a state, it should be done either OnStateBegin or OnStateUpdate. When calling from a transition it should be done from OnTransitionEntered and limited to the previous state. If this is called from other state or transition methods it may cause issues with the normal update cycle of a state machine.

Parameters:

bValue

True activates the state, false deactivates the state.

bSetAllParents

Sets the active state of all super state machines. A parent state machine won't be deactivated unless there are no other states active.

bActivateNow

If the state is becoming active it will fully activate and run OnStateBegin this tick. If this is false it will do so on the next update cycle.

---

function EvaluateTransitions

void EvaluateTransitions()

Signals to the owning state machine to process transition evaluation. This is similar to calling Update on the owner root state machine, however state update logic (Tick) won't execute. All transitions are evaluated as normal starting from the root state machine down. Depending on super state transitions it's possible the state machine this state is part of may exit.

---

function GetOutgoingTransitions

bool GetOutgoingTransitions(
    TArray< USMTransitionInstance * > & Transitions,
    bool bExcludeAlwaysFalse =true
) const

Return all outgoing transition instances.

Parameters:

Transitions

The outgoing transitions.

bExcludeAlwaysFalse

Skip over transitions that can't ever be true.

Return: True if any transitions exist.

---

function GetIncomingTransitions

bool GetIncomingTransitions(
    TArray< USMTransitionInstance * > & Transitions,
    bool bExcludeAlwaysFalse =true
) const

Return all incoming transition instances.

Parameters:

Transitions

The incoming transitions.

bExcludeAlwaysFalse

Skip over transitions that can't ever be true.

Return: True if any transitions exist.

---

Parameters:

NextStateName

The name of the state to switch to.

bRequireTransitionToPass

Will evaluate the transition and only switch states if it passes.

Return: The transition instance last active before this state became active. May be nullptr.

---

function AreAllOutgoingTransitionsFromAnAnyState

bool AreAllOutgoingTransitionsFromAnAnyState() const

Checks if every outgoing transition was created by an Any State.

---

function AreAllIncomingTransitionsFromAnAnyState

bool AreAllIncomingTransitionsFromAnAnyState() const

Checks if every incoming transition was created by an Any State.

---

function SetTimeInState

void SetTimeInState(
    float InTimeSeconds
)

Set the current time the state will be considered active for.

Parameters:

InTimeSeconds

The total time in seconds.

---

function GetStartTime

const FDateTime & GetStartTime() const

Retrieve the UTC time when the state last started. If this is called before the state has started once, or before initialization (such as during an editor construction script) the datetime will be initialized to 0.

Return: DateTime in UTC. This is when the state started locally and won't be in sync with the server.

---

function GetServerTimeInState

float GetServerTimeInState(
    bool & bOutUsedLocalTime
) const

Retrieve the time the server spent in the state. This is retrieved from network transactions and can match the TimeInState from the server.

This will only match the server after OnStateEnd() is called and provided the client received the replicated transition. When using client state change authority, USMStateMachineComponent::bWaitForTransactionsFromServer must be set to true for the client to receive the updated server time.

When the server time can't be calculated the local time will be returned instead, using GetTimeInState().

The return value is impacted by bCalculateServerTimeForClients of the state machine component's network settings, and whether the state machine is networked, a client or server, or is ticking.

Parameters:

bOutUsedLocalTime

[Out] Indicates that local time from GetTimeInState() was used.

Return: The total time spent in the state, either matching the server or the current local time spent.

---

NodeClass

The class type to search for.

bIncludeChildren

Include children of type NodeClass or require an exact match.

StopIfTypeIsNot

The search is broken when a node's type is not found in this list. Leave empty to never break the search.

variable OnStateBeginEvent

FOnStateBeginSignature OnStateBeginEvent;

Called right before the state has started. This is meant for an observer to be aware of when a state is about to start. This will only be called for state stack instances if the state is allowed to execute logic. Do not change states from within this event, the state change process will still be in progress.

---

variable OnPostStateBeginEvent

FOnStateBeginSignature OnPostStateBeginEvent;

Called right after the state has started. This is meant for an observer to be aware of when a state has started. If you need to change states this event is safer to use, but ideally state changes should be managed by transitions or from within the state.

This will only be called for state stack instances if the state is allowed to execute logic, and will be called before the primary instance's OnPostStateBeginEvent. It is not safe to change states from this event when broadcast from a state stack instance.

---

variable OnStateUpdateEvent

FOnStateUpdateSignature OnStateUpdateEvent;

Called before the state has updated. This is meant for an observer to be aware of when a state is updating and it is not advised to switch states from this event.

---

variable OnStateEndEvent

FOnStateEndSignature OnStateEndEvent;

Called before the state has ended. It is not advised to switch states during this event. The state machine will already be in the process of switching states.

---

Protected Attributes Documentation

variable NodeEndStateColor

FLinearColor NodeEndStateColor;

The color this node should be when it is an end state.

---

variable ConnectionRules

FSMStateConnectionValidator ConnectionRules;

Define what types of connections are allowed. Default is all.

---

variable bHideFromContextMenuIfRulesFail

uint16 bHideFromContextMenuIfRulesFail;

Restrict placement unless rules can be verified. Ex: If the rule says this can only be connected from a state node, then this won't show in the context menu unless dragging from a state node.

---

variable bRegisterWithContextMenu

uint16 bRegisterWithContextMenu;

Allows this node to be displayed in the graph context menu when placing nodes.

---

variable bShowDisplayNameOnly

---

variable bDisplayNameWidget

uint16 bDisplayNameWidget;

---

Private Attributes Documentation

variable bDisableTickTransitionEvaluation

uint16 bDisableTickTransitionEvaluation;

Prevents conditional transitions for this state from being evaluated on Tick. This is good to use if the transitions leading out of the state are event based or if you are manually calling EvaluateTransitions from a state instance.

---

variable bEvalTransitionsOnStart

uint16 bEvalTransitionsOnStart;

When true and a state is started OnStateBegin fires and then transitions are evaluated in the same tick. When false and a state is started OnStateBegin fires on the first tick and transitions are evaluated on the second tick.

This can be chained with other nodes that have this checked making it possible to evaluate multiple nodes and transitions in a single tick.

When using this consider performance implications and any potential infinite loops such as if you are using a self transition on this state.

Individual transitions can modify this behavior with bCanEvalWithStartState.

---

variable bAlwaysUpdate

uint16 bAlwaysUpdate;

Always update the state at least once before ending.

---

variable bCanBeEndState

uint16 bCanBeEndState;

If this state is allowed to ever be considered an end state. Disabling this will prevent a state machine that is configured to stop on end state from stopping when reaching this state, even if this state is technically an end state.

---

variable bDefaultToParallel

uint16 bDefaultToParallel;

Sets all current and future transitions from this state to run in parallel. Conduit nodes are not supported.

---
