UBlueprintPathsLibrary::SetProjectFilePath
#include "Kismet/BlueprintPathsLibrary.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable
Description
Sets the path to the .uproject file used by FPaths for the rest of the process lifetime.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • This overrides engine-wide state (FPaths::SetProjectFilePath), so calling it at runtime affects every subsequent call to GetProjectFilePath / ProjectDir-style queries, not just the calling object.
- • Almost never needed in gameplay code — this exists for editor tooling and commandlets that need to redirect the engine to a different project on disk.
