UCurveVector

class Engine Blueprint Since 4.0

Inherits: UObjectBase › UObjectBaseUtility › UObject › UCurveBase › UCurveVector

#include "Curves/CurveVector.h"

Description

A curve asset with three float channels (X, Y, Z) that returns an FVector when evaluated. Useful for animating positions, offsets, scale, or any three-channel value over time.

Signature

class UCurveVector : public UCurveBase

Caveats & Gotchas

• Each of the three channels is an independent FRichCurve — they can have different keyframe layouts and tangent types.
• Sample with GetVectorValue(Time) to get all three channels at once.
• For struct-embedded curves without an asset, use FRuntimeVectorCurve.

Example

Animate an offset over time C++

UPROPERTY(EditDefaultsOnly)
UCurveVector* BobCurve;

void Tick(float DeltaTime)
{
    Super::Tick(DeltaTime);
    ElapsedTime += DeltaTime;
    if (BobCurve)
    {
        FVector Offset = BobCurve->GetVectorValue(ElapsedTime);
        SetActorRelativeLocation(BaseLocation + Offset);
    }
}
