UAssetManager::AddAssetSearchRoot
#include "Engine/AssetManager.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: virtual
Description
Registers a new virtual asset search root so paths starting with it can be scanned and resolved like /Game.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Triggers the OnAddedAssetSearchRoot delegate, which other systems (like content plugins) can use to rescan for newly-visible assets.
- • Adding a root does not itself scan anything — you still need to call ScanPathsForPrimaryAssets for paths under the new root.
