UAbilitySystemComponent::ReadyForReplication

#include "AbilitySystemComponent.h"

Access: public Specifiers: virtualoverride

Description

Called by the replication system when this component is ready to begin replication. Registers attribute sets and instanced abilities as replicated subobjects at the correct time in the component lifecycle.

Caveats & Gotchas

• This must be called (via Super) if overridden; skipping it means attribute sets added after component registration will never be registered as network subobjects and will silently fail to replicate.
• On clients this is not called — it is a server-side lifecycle hook; do not put client-side init logic here.

        {
            AddReplicatedSubObject(Set);
        }
    }
}
