AGameStateBase::GameModeClass

property Engine Blueprint Since 4.14

#include "GameFramework/GameStateBase.h"

Access: public Specifiers: UPROPERTYTransientBlueprintReadOnlyReplicatedUsing=OnRep_GameModeClass

Description

The class of the server's game mode, assigned by GameModeBase during initialization. Replicated to clients so they know which game mode is running even though they don't have a live instance.

Caveats & Gotchas

• On non-authority clients the actual `AuthorityGameMode` instance is NULL — `GameModeClass` is the only way a client can identify what game mode is active.
• Changes after initial replication trigger `OnRep_GameModeClass`, which calls `ReceivedGameModeClass`. Override that callback (not this property) to react to the class arriving on clients.

Signature

UPROPERTY(Transient, BlueprintReadOnly, Category=GameState, ReplicatedUsing=OnRep_GameModeClass)

Example

Check game mode class on a client C++

AGameStateBase* GS = GetWorld()->GetGameState();
if (GS && GS->GameModeClass)
{
    UE_LOG(LogTemp, Log, TEXT("Game mode class: %s"), *GS->GameModeClass->GetName());
}
