UBlueprintPathsLibrary::SandboxesDir
#include "Kismet/BlueprintPathsLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticBlueprintPure
Description
Returns the directory the engine stores sandbox output in, used by tools like cooking and staging to isolate their output trees. Equivalent to FPaths::SandboxesDir() exposed for Blueprint/Python.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Sandbox output is tooling-internal (e.g. cooked build staging areas) — gameplay code has essentially no reason to read or write here.
- • Use ConvertToSandboxPath()/ConvertFromSandboxPath() to translate individual file paths into and out of a named sandbox rather than manually concatenating onto this directory.
