APlayerState::SetIsFromPreviousLevel

function Engine Since 4.0

#include "GameFramework/PlayerState.h"

Access: public

Description

Sets the bFromPreviousLevel flag without triggering replication side effects. Used after consuming the flag value to prevent duplicate processing on subsequent logins.

Caveats & Gotchas

• This setter bypasses normal replication callbacks — it writes the member directly. If you need clients to be aware of the change, handle replication manually or rely on existing OnRep logic.
• The flag is not networked by itself; it is populated server-side during seamless travel. Calling this on a client has no effect on authority state.
