UAssetManager::GetSettings

function Engine Since unknown

#include "Engine/AssetManager.h"

Access: public Specifiers: const

Description

Returns the project's Asset Manager settings object, sourced from the Asset Manager section of Project Settings / DefaultGame.ini.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Returns the config-backed CDO, not a live-editable runtime object — mutating fields on the returned reference won't persist and can produce inconsistent behavior between calls.
• Reflects whatever was in config at engine startup; changes made to DefaultGame.ini afterward require a config reload to show up here.
