AAIController::GetPathFollowingComponent

function AIModule Blueprint Since 4.0

#include "AIController.h"

Access: public Specifiers: UFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable

Description

Returns the PathFollowingComponent subobject responsible for executing movement along a nav path. Use this to access fine-grained path following state or configure movement tolerances directly.

Caveats & Gotchas

• The PathFollowingComponent is private — this getter is the only way to access it. Do not store the returned pointer across frames without checking for validity, especially after controller re-possession.
• Can return nullptr on controllers that were constructed without a PathFollowingComponent (e.g., custom lightweight AI controllers).
