UBehaviorTreeComponent::GetAccumulatedTickDeltaTime
#include "BehaviorTree/BehaviorTreeComponent.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: constinline
Description
Returns the total delta time accumulated for the current tick, accounting for any frames that were skipped due to ScheduleNextTick throttling.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Use this instead of the raw DeltaTime passed to TickTask when the tree has been throttled — it reflects the real elapsed time since the last processed tick, not just one frame.
- • Only meaningful while a tick is actively being processed; calling it outside that context returns whatever value was last accumulated.
- • Defined inline in the header as a simple accessor over the private AccumulatedTickDeltaTime member.
Signature
float GetAccumulatedTickDeltaTime() const { return AccumulatedTickDeltaTime; }Return Type
float Example
Use accumulated delta time in a throttled task C++
void UMyTask::TickTask(UBehaviorTreeComponent& OwnerComp, uint8* NodeMemory, float DeltaSeconds)
{
const float RealDelta = OwnerComp.GetAccumulatedTickDeltaTime();
// Use RealDelta instead of DeltaSeconds when the tree is throttled
