UAnimInstance::HasNativeStateEntryBinding
#include "Animation/AnimInstance.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: constENGINE_API
Description
Checks whether a native C++ delegate is bound to the entry event of the specified state machine state. Returns true if a binding exists.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Only detects bindings added via AddNativeStateEntryBinding — Blueprint-defined state entry events are not reported.
- • State and machine names are case-sensitive and must match the Animation Blueprint graph exactly.
