function Engine Blueprint Since unknown

#include "Kismet/GameplayStatics.h"

Access: public Specifiers: static

Description

Creates a new instance of a USaveGame subclass with default values. Use to create a fresh save object before populating and passing to SaveGameToSlot.

Signature

static ENGINE_API USaveGame* CreateSaveGameObject(TSubclassOf<USaveGame> SaveGameClass)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Default
SaveGameClass	TSubclassOf<USaveGame>	The USaveGame subclass to instantiate.	—

Return Type

USaveGame*

Caveats & Gotchas

• The returned object is not associated with any slot until SaveGameToSlot is called. It exists in memory only.
• Equivalent to NewObject<UMyGameSave>() in C++ — the UGameplayStatics version is primarily for Blueprint convenience. In C++ you can use NewObject directly.

Example

Create, populate, and save C++

UMyGameSave* NewSave = Cast<UMyGameSave>(
	UGameplayStatics::CreateSaveGameObject(UMyGameSave::StaticClass())
);
NewSave->PlayerName = PlayerName;
NewSave->HighScore  = Score;
UGameplayStatics::SaveGameToSlot(NewSave, TEXT("Slot1"), 0);
