UKismetAnimationLibrary::K2_EndProfilingTimer

function AnimGraphRuntime Blueprint Since 4.20

#include "KismetAnimationLibrary.h"

Access: public Specifiers: staticUFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable

Description

Ends the profiling bracket started by K2_StartProfilingTimer and returns the elapsed time in milliseconds, optionally logging it to the Output Log.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Calling this without a matching K2_StartProfilingTimer call first produces a meaningless or garbage elapsed time since there is no internal 'not started' check.
• Logging every frame (bLog = true) in a Tick-driven anim graph will flood the Output Log; reserve logging for one-shot debugging sessions.

Signature
